Anyone pre order Red Storm from GMT.

Nah. I'm sure I'll pick it up at some point, but I rarely do pre-orders these days.

Being able to Google shit better than your clients is a legit career skill.

Worst box art for a war game ever.   :idiot2:




***EDIT***
Never mind... not a real war game but some kind of Euro game/ Log Officer mashup wet dream....
Still the Deuce and a half on the cover of the previous game, 1944 Race to the Rhine, more representative of the conflict....

Stop.  This is the company that gave us the weird art for "Europe Divided" and included a warning that it depicted current events.

It is also the company that gave us both editions of "Brass" -- games that I will happily throw in the face of anyone who ever dares criticize wargames for their complexity.

And it is also the company that published "My Little Scythe".

Cheap suits off the same rack.

I like my U-Boot, though.

It does read like an up-marketed 18xx.

Or the conversion from standard gauge to Russian gauge, which was wider than the rest of Europe.

That thing DOES look like a train-building game, so I looked it up. Worst cover art ever to describe a game. Well...okay, maybe not WORST, but it's certainly off the rails.
