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

Are there any gamers on this forum who play any sort of roleplaying games?
I’m big into 4th Edition D&D, but I’ve also been working on designing my own original game system that I would love to test out, if I can find some interested players.

As far as being good, I liked it, but I like OV beer so……  Battles had no chance component, but trade cards could introduce some nasty events that can set you back.  Diplomacy and trading were how you won for the most part.  Optimizing your country for the geography and national goals were what I liked best.  But I am an optimization junkie.

I own Tide of Iron, looks great but I haven’t played it yet.

Some more details (interviews) from the devs: http://thegamershub.co.uk/2010/03/hubcast-05/ and http://www.massively.com/2010/03/22/interview-with-world-of-tanks-mike-zhivets/

I thought it might be a game called Stargate.  I played a game called Vector 3 by the same company long ago.  I’d love to get my hands on one of those now.  I think I bought it for about $5 back in the early 80s.

If you want a good Vietnam board game, try out Vietnam 1965-1975.

It is a hex based game, using counters for playing pieces. The game is from the 80’s and you’ll find it on Ebay.

For sure, no game depicts the vietnam war better - with hidden units, ho chi minh infiltration routes.

Beware though, that the Grand Campaign 65-75 takes hundreds and hundreds of hours to play. However, there exist about a dozen smaller scenarios (like the Tet offensive amongst others).
