Art Book, Battle Log and Tactical Guide

[makran70]

Personally, I found the three PDF documents (Art Book, Battle Log and Tactical Guide, part of COMMANDER PACK) very poorly done. Speaking of layout. As much the same ones from Normandy 44 were nicely done, those ones look as if they were never finished but sent to the client "as is". They look like drafts.

** ART BOOK **
Already the cover is disturbing: Art Book with a weird font and color that do not match the rest. No Eugen logo.
- In the SCENERY, metal bridge has wrong number reference. Wood bridge as an arrow with no reference.
- KEY ART show the word "Bagration" under the title of all examples but without explanation why this was not retain for final product.
- PREORDER ACES title is not really right because most Aces are found in Commander Pack. Anyway, no details about those Aces, their history for example is found nowhere.
- STRATEGIC GAME show a lot of images put there one after the other without explanation, without the final design image and suddenly, nothing ... No conclusion, no team presentation, no final word, no credits. The book end brutally. I repeat, it shows like a draft.

** BATTLE LOG **
Not so bad, not especially nice, font is really basic, no frills, but the less worth of the three in terms of layout. About the content, nothing new, we find the same story in the game itself. Advice are no big secret.

** TACTICAL GUIDE **
TABLE OF CONTENT is a mess. All pages are wrong. The subtitle "Examples" is written many times without proper reference in the content itself.
- The PHASES are put once again one after the other without page break in between.
- In the WEAPONS paragraph, EXAMPLES is formatted twice as a title level. AIRCRAFT is not formatted as a title. No proper page breaks.
- DIVISIONS paragraph show once again information pitched one after the other without proper page break. Manoeuver Group Bezugly see it's different parts (Infantry, Tank, Support, ...) not formatted as sub-title. Many times, sub-titles are found alone on the last line of the page instead being stuck with their paragraph on the following page.
This guide especially is really awful in term of layout. A real draft. I found shocking to receive such product quality. We paid the big bucks after all. I feel cheated.

What do you think?

All of them except art book are rubbish,the art book is very well made in fact,too bad no reference to the artist as I'm recalled.
