iM1A2 Abrams

I read on the page for this game (under history) that you were one of the developers. Congrats, man, on what I think is the most excellent, well-thought out and enjoyable game EVER. I mean it. I'd really like to drive the Bradleys and HMMWVs too but of course it is an M1A2 sim and not a Humvee/Bradley sim, plus you guys had memory and hardware constraints.

As to how big a fan I am, I've been playing your game since I was 8 (when it came out, my dad got it for me for Christmas because we'd just gotten a Windows 95 system). It's been on every computer I've owned except for the Windows 2000 and beyond because it doesn't work on those (if you guys still have the source code around, I would be very appreciative of a patch! :) ).

To do what your team did with a combined strategy/sim game under Windows 95 hardware constraints is unbelievable. The detail, realism, extra features, competent AI, fun missions, and degree to which you can customize your force/choose your storyline is phenomenal. iM1A2 is truly a work of art (although I think there might be one physics bug where the tank can go down a hill and have no terminal velocity--good for getting across the huge hilly Bosnia maps fast though!).

I -strongly- encourage you to get the team back together again and make a sequel. It's an incredibly well-produced, detailed game (they don't make 'em like they used to :( ).
