It depends on what “work” means – in other words, on whether players would consider a Kursk scenario appealing. Conceptually, Kursk would be similar to A&A D-Day (minus the water) in the sense that the battle was fundamentally a frontal assault on a heavily-defended static position, and similar to A&A Battle of the Bulge in the sense that it would involve ground forces driving into enemy lines, but different from both games in the sense that from the German point of view Kursk was a pincer movement aimed at pinching off a salient, and that from the Russian point of view it was a two-stage offensive-defensive battle. Personally I think it has good potential to make an interesting game, if it’s designed properly.

Like he says, it is based on the World at War expansion pack, which is definitely NOT the most popular scenario for A&A - the US being able to load units on E. US and unload them into France on the same turn kinda sucks.
But if you have the money to spare (or to waste…)

My 1939 gameboard is 80’’ x 45’’
And no you can’t unload US troops in Fance in the same turn. -
This guy is smoking something if he thinks someone would spend that kinda money on a HUGE Xeno Map. He didn’t even add any territories.

I hope he enjoys his new huge Zeno map. Ugly as hell, and just sucks.
Sold for $1250 I really hope some one didn’t pay that much for that

i have that map. bought it like 12yrs ago for about $20.00. this guy is retarted. i hope no one pays that, they can have mine. -
Yeah, I saw this item too. In fact, I was watching it just to see if it sold. The auction ended without a sale and the seller has relisted it. I couldn’t believe the price when I first saw it.
Did anyone check out the game pieces? They look pretty cool but are quite a bit bigger than A&A pieces. He has some pics comparing them. The factories are HUGE. A lot of the land pieces, particularly infantry and AA guns, are on these big bases the size of poker chips. In fact, you are supposed to use poker chips for stacking purposes. You would need such a huge map to handle all of those larger pieces. The aircraft carrier piece he showed next to an A&A aircraft carrier and it dwarfed the A&A piece. The ships are almost as big as the A&A Miniatures pieces, but not quite.
I wouldn’t mind having a copy of that game just to check it out but not at $1250. Maybe if I were a millionaire with money to throw away, but unfortunately I’m a simple working stiff.
