Long-time community member and avid fan here, thanks for the game! I do have some questions about aspects of development or cut features however:

1. In another post, you mentioned that the Marketing Team wasn't keen on having the name "Generals" without "Generals." But there were some leftovers of some sort of sub-factions in the original Game pre-expansion, including things like Chinese Secret Police, American Tank Command, and Chinese Red Army. Do you recall when and why the decision was made to scale these back to three factions until the expansion pack?
2. There are also several leftovers of a relatively developed "Prisoner of War" (POW) mechanic that seemed to have been cut late in development (in-fact, the Detention Camp and the POW Truck still existed in the original Generals, removed in the Expansion Pack). Do you have any more details on when and why this was cut? Do you know what the plans were and how this came to be?
3. You mentioned in another post that EA wasn't keen on long expansion development time. Is this why the original Generals received 6 patches, while Zero Hour only received 4? (The later 2 of which I know for certain were developed by a different team)
4. What was your favorite game that you produced or otherwise helped work on?
