…now did this book also include blitzing, strafing, infantry push mechanic, deadzones and shuck shuck ?

let’s not start calling any person’s faith fairy tales.  It’s somewhere the site admin does not want us to go and I can see nothing good coming from such a comment - discussion wise.

Larry Harris=George Lucas. Great stuff, started something phenominal. Has to eff around with stuff that “aint’” necessarily broken. Not sure if Disney taking over Axis&Allies would be good or not.

Just kiddin’ Larry, George Lucas sucks….mostly.

BBC caught some underwater video of this fish recently.  They apparently are rarely seen unless they are dead or dying.

Yes sir! But im afraid he’s just a puppet of sorts. The last guy i found out got fired because some of their fantasy RPG noob games dropped in sales. This will have little impact on AH because its still a company sitting on the back burner. Nobody is pushing Avalon Hill to success. All these people are all minimalists doing the least amount of work as possible. No marketing whatsoever is going on except for a few perfunctory “news releases” ,No print media advertisement , no forum support, no special online demos, nothing but crickets. Its a joke and they should all be ashamed.

I will always stand by my view that WOTC is slowly destroying Avalon Hill by neglect. The decision making on what is being produced is not following any overall plan and its got a few titles being circulated from past fortunes made, but no new ideas and the few new ideas that come out are not based on any feedback from the consumer. Making Diplomacy is a mistake along with Acquire. These games are not bringing new people into the hobby as the people who play them already have all the different versions. Diplomacy Deluxe is still the best version ever made san the original Key games version with the larger board.

They should embrace the titles from the heyday: Stalingrad, Afrika Corps, Anzio, Luftwaffe, France 40, rail baron, D-Day, Russian Campaign, Midway, etc… Make these games and bring back The General magazine. You can make these games with pieces, blocks, or counters. All these ideas and they decide on “Acquire”? you gotta be kidding me or what?

@froodster:

I have a friend who stayed in Baghdad during the Allied bombing as a human rights observer. She belonged to the same organization that later had three members kidnapped. If any of you right-wingers want to get really riled up, go check out their website at http://cpt.org - which incidentally was the first website I ever designed.

the funny thing about these guys are they are from ethnic and cultural groups which traditionally vote “conservative”.

Yep… actually no trial… just make them “disappear” if you know what i mean.
