So, I just received a copy of this today on long-term loan from my very good buddy, JD (thanks, mate
)
I spent some time this afternoon and evening going through the rules, setting it up, and pushing a few counters around, and I have to say that so far, its the best attempt I have come across to do a one-map bulge game. I like the scale of the game , the physical appearance of it, and what I've learned of the system thus far is quite positive.
Whilst I knew that it was a Ted Raicer design, it was only when I read the blurb in the rulebook that I learned that its basically the same system as the three 'Dark' games that he designed and are published by GMT. Apparently, he could not use the word 'Dark' in the title as it was being used for that other series.
Anyway, so far, so good. I shall report further after a bit more serious play.
Thanks again, JD
