If it shows up in time I might give it a shot. If not this month then maybe next.

I ordered this and was charged as well. At the rate shipping containers are being offloaded, I sincerely doubt the game is going to be on my doorstep before June. TheCommandTent, maybe we could have dueling comparisons?  :)

My copy arrived today on the Left Coast. Being close to California has its advantages for GMT shipping.  8)

Those of us on the opposite side of the country are jealous.  :waiting:

Hopefully you get your copy of the game today, or early next week. I'm surprised it arrived so quickly. I still haven't received Flashpoint: South China Sea, which I P500ed (can we make a verb out of the P500 system?) over 3 years ago.

I won't be able to really look at it until the last two weeks of March, so if you get your copy soon, I look forward to your thoughts on it.

Quite a small footprint really. One map and one sheet of counters.

From what I've read and this picture on GMT's website it looks like its part one of a 3 part series that will be able to be combined.

Hopefully "combined" in the sense that - if space is prohibited - you could play all 3 combined "separately"...as in fight one, carry forces over to fight the second etc.
