Nations At War

[judgedredd]

Is Nations at War similar to World at War but in WWII instead of '85 Europe? Same mechanics etc?

[bob48]

Yes, same base system.

Cool. I can see me spending more money

Get the Digital version for like $4 to try it out.

lol - I forgot I did have it - and played it 

[judgedredd]

Does anyone have them and if so, what one do you prefer?

[Barthheart]

Between WaW85 and NaW? I prefer WaW85... which is odd because I’m mostly a WWII guy.

For me, the system just suits the modern setting better. Better flow, better results, etc.

[bob48]

Having owned and played them both,  albeit the earlier versions, would tend to agree with you.

[judgedredd]

Sorry - not between World at War 85 and Nations at War...I meant, out of the Nations at War games (modules?) which one do you prefer?

[Barthheart]

I have White Star Rising and Desert Heat. I prefer WSR. I never did get Stalin's Triumph...

[bob48]

Same here. I did some play testing on both Cobra and Airborne expansions and some development work on Cobra. WSR is Ok, but I really did not like Desert Heat at all. I was not impressed with the scenarios. I got tired of the system and thus never bothered with Stalin's Triumph.

lol.. should I be unhappy for grabbing Stalin's Triumph?

[bob48]

No idea, since I didn't own it. As I say, I lost interest in the game system, but definitely think it suits the WaW games better.
