Hmmm, but we are allowed to play games about WWII, right ?

I guess we will have to wait a few decades before a game like this will be accepted by the community.

I see where this is going, but ww2 wasnt 5(six?) years ago.

Nor is there a game where you make burning people jump out of the top floor of a building. i bet you didnt even go to the link.

But I dont play wargames on current wars. Like Bagdad etc.
Both of my grandpa's were killed by WWII , one in Stalingrad anotherone died after ww2 due to wounds. and i didnt see anything immoral playing sh3 for example. BUT if someone palying the game like NAZI HONOUR (fictional) . its a sickness. if some one playing pilot who drops bombs on Hirosima / Nagasaki ---its a sickness

PS: My grandpa died aboard a Jap vessel that was torpedoed by the allies. Still I like playing SH4. Probably a sickness too.

Alright, everyone has made up. Controversial gaming settings have been discussed ad nasuem on this forum, and the last thing that GT needs right now is another open sore.

There was a saying that time treats everything.... In this case KURSK is real sub not an abstract name.
If they gave another name for this game with no connection to real sub, KURSK.
make a money on human losses.... sorry

All historical war games make money about human losses. It is the chance to loose you life, the danger, that makes war so interesting.

And many more people make money on it, defence industry, journalists, etcetera
