I can play ByForum or ByEmail, I need to play some more games…
The problem was I use to play LowLuck but we can play normal dicey, just a bit of editing… if the targem is to tray and learn new strategies… :grinning:

@RogerCooper said in "East & West" by Imp Games - Discussion:

I find nuking counterattack forces is best

General observation, but it seems like hitting the backline with nukes while hitting the frontline with conventional forces is the way to gradually wear the enemy down.

So for anyone who’s played E&W, what did you like about the game?

For me, what it comes down to is managing equipment. Like, it’s very much an IPM-style game, so keeping your tanks and aircraft safe while at the same time exerting force as effectively as possible, is the whole puzzle of E&W. The early attacks made by the Soviets are usually about reducing the number of front lines they have to fight on, but also destroying NATO’s equipment (particularly transports, but also armor and fighters.)

“Build” is misspelled in the Russian box.  Just in case it got missed and/or has not gone to print yet.

Irock, Warrior, and Others,

As you may already know by now we are, as we speak, working on a new series of games as I just described below.  The (proposed) name is:

Expanded A&A-The Naval Series with the 1st game to be Coral Sea and The Solomons Campaign.

We’re investigating the possibility that you could play 2 or 3 COMPLETELY separate games on the same map(at DIFFERRENT times).  the Coral Sea naval-air battle, the huge Solomons Campaign, and maybe a Battle of the Bismark Sea scenario, too.

I’ve had so many players express their interest and approval in my stated goal for a game that would be designed based on a “Battle-Specific”(the Solomons Campaign) map, Enlarged to
G-40 size, and utilizing all the new units and their new capabilities.

I think that this would be nothing short of a revolution in our A&A gameplay.

Of course none of this would be the least bit possible without HBG and FMG making available all of the wonderful new units that they plan.  My hat’s off to them for their efforts here.

Tigerman, as an experienced “Map Master”, has agreed to do the map(Haleluyah!!!) which will take a bit of time as what we’re proposing is HUGE!  Not only in the amount of changes, new rules, and improvements(?) that we plan, but in shear SIZE as well.

Stay tuned to the various postings for updates.

And if this seems the least bit interesting to you, get INVOLVED and let us know YOUR ideas or opinions.  We will all benefit from having all ideas considerred.

We’ve started our own thread here in the Variants Section for this game called
Expanded A&A-The Naval Series    Coral Sea and The Solomons Campaign.
Stop in and check it out, ask questions, or offer suggestions anytime.

Like I Say,……What Do YA’LL Think???

NEW RELEASE from WorldsForge

Field Command: Singapore 1942 Cards Expansion is a card-based expansion to the Field Command: Singapore 1942, which is about the Battle of Singapore during the Second World War.

This expansion allows the player to experience many interesting and unique episodes that truly happened during the Battle of Singapore, such as Yamashita’s bluff and Maxwell’s premature withdrawal, the failed Japanese ruse of disguise as Indian soldiers, and the burning hell on Kranji river. Together, these episodes epitomize the unpredict-ability of warfare, as few real battles follow the textbook or even go according to plan.

The cards come in 2 decks, one for each side of the conflict, and enhance the re-playability of 2 campaign scenarios - Impregnable Fortress & The Almost Naked Island. Players will get to adapt to unforeseen situations and surprise their opponents. Every game is a new challenge.

Order yours today!

Stalingrad wins it look for new thread Stalingrad game. I probably can’t start work on it for a while.

The basic idea is that the game has a natural balance, in that Germany and UK/USA should each give equal emphasis to both fronts in order to prevent handing a walkover victory to whichever opponent they don’t attack.
