Almost done with 2021, but even with the holiday break, we still found plenty of news for you to talk about

Combat!2 - that is an odd one - requiring Combat! to play. I don't understand it considering the second game seems to come with all the kit to make it's own game.

Also - at over $100 given the first game was about $150 - I don't get it.

I love Combat! - but I was a bit disappointed to see they were including vehicles for the second one. I know others wouldn't be, but I liked it being infantry only.

I wouldn't mind the vehicles so much...I think back to my old games of Ambush! and had a great time when a Pz IV or German halftrack would pop in for tea.  ;D

I am really interested in Combat! but I just can't get past the price. Its one of those wishlist things that keeps going on Christmas and b-day lists hoping someone else will pull the trigger.  ::)

Recommend your favorite FL(W)GS to us!

note: there's a form at the link to capture the relevant info which gets us more data-driven than transcribing stray online comments, which we know people will leave anyway....
