Xeno Games' Europe at War

We just got a couple of these in at the game store that I work for.  Has anyone here played it?

Apparently it was designed by a sub commander, Andrew Benford.  I think that some of the components look interesting, like the acrylic sonar overlays.  If anyone’s interested, I can try to give it a play and post a review of it here.

sorry, content was deleted

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’ve thought about using it in AAE, but then I relized that I could only use the small infintrie type units as most others (Tanks mostly) were too large to fit in 1 teritoirie.

That’d be in interesting thing to do though, you’d have to have quit a few AAM though.

Hiho,

This is one of the finest wargames ever made.
Columbia Games developed a lot of very good games: http://www.columbiagames.com/

If anyone would like to know something about those block-games, just ask me.

I am glad to hear that some of you have tried out Empire Forge.

I mentioned it in another thread that you can find here:
