Headquarters WWII from Slitherine Games

First Impressions of Headquarters WWII from Slitherine Games

HQWW2 rewards good tactics, and is appealing on all other wargaming fronts. What more could you ask for? Is this the spiritual successor to Battle Academy 2 that we’ve all been dreaming about? I think we need to hold off on that level of kudos until we get to see the final product in its full glory. This demo does hint at being a great modern successor to the classic wargame (and as far as I know currently, no developers from that game series were involved in the production of this game) but I don’t yet want to step into the minefield of giving it that gilded prize.

Good overview. I agree that this should turn out to be a good fun game. 👍🏻

I just can't remember I played a computer war game 

It really used to give me a buzz...but now, I just play boardgames.

I'm with you, JD. It's been a while as I've been playing physical board games almost exclusively for a while now.
That said, this looks really good. I also stumbled across this one that looks good: Classified: France '44

I've been restraining myself from buying Classified: France '44.  I was impressed by the demo.

I'm with you lot - I really only play board games these days.

HQ Looks pretty damned good to me. I will definitely follow faithfully.

Failed my saving throw today and bought Classified.    Lots of fun so far.

“The best way for me to describe HQWW2 is this. It is as if Call Of Duty WW2, Battle Academy 2, and Panzer General 2 had a really awkward threesome, and this was the result."
