RE: Games I'd Like to see
Operation Michael, the last German offensive.
I think picking the mideast for a Brit-centric game is a good idea. The Somme and Verdun may be national mythology in Britain and France, but the maneuver periods of the war are better for gaming and were more decisive. There wouldn't be much to do (especially for Germans) in a lot of western front battles from 1915-17. The 1918 offensive and allied counteroffensive would be perfect! You get later war troops of every side, including Americans and Marines.
You could even see this being split in two: Gott mit Uns! The final German offensive in the West
First to Fight! The Allied Offensive to win the war
Russian Civil War also fits. Cavalry charges and pursuits are devastating in this system, and they would reflect well.
