I can't find a thing wrong with it. I have all the expansions except the music ones and Native American one (boo), and it's a Hell of a game.

I bought Heart of Iron 3 during the Steam holiday sale. Looks like it'll fit my WWII (grand) strategy needs...

I've actually cut my time down to just OOTP these days, so that I can do more reading and writing. If they ever start turning those Avalon Hill hex wargames into video games, I'd probably mix those in. I loved the concept, but they were dying for computers to do all the heavy lifting.

I also have FHM, which I need to break out and try soon.

Here's another question about this, Markus. Will this only show Major League (or whatever the top level league is in the league you're in) or will it also show minor league awards?

Slitherine/Matrix Games and the BBC stepped into that gap and produced the Battle Academy series. Did you like Squad Leader? That's basically what they are.

Battle Academy on Steam

Battle Academy 2: Eastern Front on Steam

Highly recommended.

I've played the whole series, and Darkest Hour is my favorite by far. HOI 3 is too micromanagy (is that a word?) for my tastes.

Darkest Hour: A Hearts of Iron Game on Steam

Game winning RBI doesn't have much value as a statistic, but when one is perusing box scores quickly, it's helpful in getting a better sense of what happened during the game.

Pretty much my second biggest time spent in game except for OOTP. Love me some CK2 - the new GUI and ruler options in the latest DLC are a lot of fun.

This is a great addition to the game! I was thinking a badge for Hall of Fame induction would be neat as well, if not already included of course. The popup info could show the date of induction, and the league too.

Any chance this can get answered? A few people are interested in it.

Only major league awards. This is by design.
