It’s not as good of a game as G40 but it is still a good game. The play is much different so that adds some variety to your game collection. Make sure that if you are going to get the game that you get extra pieces or you will be frustrated. Aside from German infantry the next thing to run out is the playing chips and they are slightly larger than the chips you are using now so they don’t stack well. You can buy the pieces and chips from HBG. The tournament rules are better than the OOB rules as well.

Ya… I read his post like:
We played for eight hours…
Here’s how all of turn-1 went…
Then the Allies surrendered…
:-oI figured I must have missed something! :-D
6 or 7 turns in 8 hours sounds a lot better than 1 turn in 8 hours! Now it all makes more sense!
I love WW1 history almost as much as WW2 history… but dang, there’s only so many hours in a day… our group stopped playing Global because it was too time consuming and we switched to “mini global” (aka: Anniversary Edition).

You should really try out this wonderful game, me and 3/4 friends play this game on a regular base like once in a month. However we said it is time to change teams/factions because we have played 5 times as Central Powers and won 4 of it, they only win once. Excited to play as the Allies :) they do have a good starting point because they know the Axis tactics thanks to us.
Anyone want to try out my first round of CP tactics? I had a great experience and would love to hear your stories.

Glad to hear you had a good game. I also love 1914, in particularly finding the differences to reflect WW1 conditions fascinating.

Has anyone tried my tactic page 1 and 2?
