    The War Room and Campaign Map (Site features)

    Ok, I got this idea from an Mod called Europe in Ruins

    When you guys release OVERLORD. I thought it would be awesome to include an War room kinda feature for your mod.

    The War room would function as a general place for people to see how the war is progressing as well as the following -

    * The Campaign Map - Shows how well the allies are doing as well as the Axis forces.
    * Global Stats - Shows the total amount of men lost, Supplies used, and amount of Men and Supplies left.
    * Personal Stats - Shows Personal Stats such as
    -K/D Ratio
    -Medals and citations
    -Objectives Completed
    -preferred class , etc.

    I like that idea - having a "War Room" as you call it is not something I've ever thought of personally. It would of course require global stats tracking however.

    You could set up a server for this. Then just implement some code for Global Stat Tracking that relays the info to the site.

    I know I make is sound allot simpler than it really is

    But along with the war room you could do a virtual newspaper. You could do an this day in WW2 history.

    It is only a thought of course

    You could also announce important things like an New Chapter releasing soon in this channel for those who don't check the front page.

    Thoughts are read and appreciated

    I can't comment on whether stats tracking will be in the mod but if it is that idea might well be implemented.

    Plus this would be a first for FPS games. I mean How many FPS games track your progress on a war map?

    I wonder if I can find the post, but I originally suggested that whole "track stats, battles based on war" type of idea. its somewhere around here.
