Vince - there are many ways to skin this cat. Stand-alone games versus add-on for people with existing games. It can work either way.
Jay - generic maps would also work as long as the big/important areas are covered "generically".
For the Germans, outside of the 352nd infantry and 21st Panzer, the other divisions were of the "static class" (709th, 711th, and 716th if memory serves me). They did not have the depth nor firepower of normal German infantry divisions. Thus, these would require less counters per division.

Look at the campaign in Winter Soldiers, this already exists.
Just a way to log the play's in PG-HQ.

1945-46 Japanese Homeland Invasion: Operation Olympic & Operation Coronet.
A supplement with counters and scenarios similar to Iron Curtain & Secret Weapons.

How about a small PG boxed game about the same size as Airborne, called the Italian-Greek War, 1940 before the Germans come to the Italians aid?
Italian-Greek War 1940, in Albania/Greece.
Maybe two maps and one or two counter sheets.

Here's something off the beaten path. How about a game or supplement (with counters) covering the battle for Saipan? It's an open terrain fight in the Pacific. I don't recall any caves, meaning that it's not a bug hunt. Rather, the Japanese fought with conventional and Banzai tactics using attacks using infantry, tanks, and artillery. The Americans feature both the Army and Marines.
RE: PG Games We'd like to buy - JayTownsend - 07-19-2012
Yeah Mike, this would be good, I recommend both of these ideas to Mike.
Saipan would need geomorphic maps however.
RE: PG Games We'd like to buy - JayTownsend - 07-19-2012
A third one would be:
A small boxed game about the size of airborne again for Operation Torch, with 2-3 maps and 2 counter sheets not counting markers. VC French vs Americans in beach landings, landbattles, one paradrop, a little urban conflict. Lot of early model American equipment: Grants and all kinds of SP-halftracks and the French armor which we have seen before but not in the desert.
It might be a cool small size game.

What ever new PG book with counters that Mike hinted about today in the PG topic at consimworld. I don't even need to know the topic..I'll buy it. And two copies if it includes either the IJA or any of the Chinese armies from WW2.
