Too little, too late to be honest.

That’s for you to say, but I disagree on that.
It could have been released earlier, but there would have been a less detailed map, fewer ships/planes, and still contained some game problems, and probably would have spelled the end of any future products by TFS. So taking the time to make it a very good quality product would be worth it.
The earliest that 1CGS can even do North Africa is 2022 (with a release in 2023-24), and by 2022 we may have a good sense at what a TF 6.0 would contain and some WIP pics.
P.S. Whenever 1CGS is able to do a PTO battle, would you say that it’s ” Too little, too late”?
That’s my view

Looks like they’ve done a hell of a job with it! When they add VR support, I’ll be in like Flynn.
