I heard this too, also i have a friend in the industry and there is rumblings of a NWE mini series following 3 formations 2 Brit and 1 Canadian or vice versa, he mentioned one was for sure tanks (hussars) the other was Regina dunno, but I assume Regina Rifles 3rd Can Inf. who knows but would be awesome, and plenty of history for it.
