Copycat version of Axis and Allies style game…

Hey Guys,

I saw on Smorey Swamp that Commanders and Tactics WW2 Deck Building Game was played at Gencon. I have been trying to find the game on BGG with no luck. If anyone knows this game and can provide a link that would be awesome.

Thanks heaps

@taamvan:

Can you elaborate on some of the improvements, so that I may hopelessly convince myself to buy it, knowing i’ll never play?

@SS:

Just remembered I was gonna use the Battleship game subs but didn’t have enough so that’s how I thought of the 84 game.

Nothing wrong with using A&A subs, but if you had your heart set on Battleship subs (that doesn’t sound right), I’m sure you could just order spare parts from E-Bay on the cheap… I can’t imagine there not being thousands of Battleship pieces out there on E-Bay.

Heck, I ordered FOUR different sets of LotR Monopoly pieces off E-Bay to get enough fortresses for my LotR Risk game… so I can only imagine how common Battleship pieces must be.

Has anyone here given this a try?

How does it compare to other aircraft/spacecraft dog-fighting games? Are the minis as decent as the marketing makes them seem?

Does anyone remember Hidden & Dangerous? It was a tactical squad-based FPS that was based on SAS missions in WWII.

It was so difficult, it was basically the “Dark Souls” of WWII shooters. One wrong move would trigger the alarm for an entire base and you would die in a hail of bulletfire. None of this “one man army” Call of Duty stuff, you had to think about every move, every kill to complete the mission.

I have fond memories of sitting around a CRT monitor with a couple of my friends, blanket draped over our heads so we could see better in the night missions, knuckles white with tension. Come to think of it, our moms were probably wondering what the hell we were looking at…  :lol:

Sid Meier’s Civilization (Original Version)

I actually thought that I was buying Cities and Knights, but like an idiot bought the 5-6 player C/K expansion instead. It’s next on my list.

I’d have a lot of fun contributing to a Settlers website. I don’t play much A&A anymore (college and all), but I do play a lot of Settlers, Atlantic Storm, and Illuminati.
