The BCS games are very good, and quite different. There are a lot of smaller scenarios but it is a reasonably complex system. Lucky for me,  my buddy is very into the system, so he has been showing me how to play on Vassal.

he has also done quite a few youtube vids on this game, amongst others. Here is a link;

So I ended up ordering Poland Defiant and Counter Attack: The Battle of Arras 1940. Total including shipping is $68 USD...~$90 CAD. Sigh.... :idiot2:
