Avalon Hill's anzio is garbage. 👍👍Thanks sir

Good review thanks. I’ve got one game, Cassino. Came very quickly, excellent production values and it looks like a an interesting system. BUT. I haven’t played any of the four games in the box. The problem is the rules. The translation isn’t good enough for me to be confident that I am playing the game correctly. Unlike Westerplatte it is a moderately complex system and I think it needs someone fluent in English, Polish AND a board gamer to translate the rules effectively. This is such a shame. This is a quality product, which seems excellent value for money, with a great range of titles and the company deserve a far bigger audience.

Gracias a la revista vae victis,en España podemos jugar a wargames,AQUI NO LLEGAN LOS JUEGOS DE GMT Y CIA

Helion books are always tempting, I've spent far too much with them myself

The solo rules seem more like suggestions on how to play two handed than an actual enemy ai, which is a shame. Thanks for sharing!

Completely agree with your assessment of VV - really love how they cover a lot of topics "off a beaten path". Unfortunately, both ancient tactical game I've had a while back and more recent Wattignies 1793 I've tried were duds, with rules somehow not "clicking" for me. Plus the graphics is really nice but I much prefer same graphics for the same unit types. Not giving up on them yet, though, have a few more titles to try😁

Very nice! I am a fan of the old Baccus Polish range as most of my Poles are these as well, I feel the scale of the cavalry is slightly better than in the new range. But I must admit that once one gets their hands on the new models, one really does miss the bendy lances and breaking off banners of the old hussars.

I remember when WSS first became available in the UK, they had English translations of the articles in Spanish.

Great Update, Helion do some great books.

Why are you called "The Orwell Gamer"?

Glad the game arrived safely, I've got Equatorial Clash but somehow it's not clicking yet, making a quick detour into another time period - Wattignies 1793 from Vae Victis 😁

That Carlist Wars book is very good. Figures wise it’s 15mm or 28mm. I’ve gone down the 15mm route with Stonewall Figures, in Cornwall

Very interesting vid, and nice view of the game too. Thank you.

Not sure if 28mm appeals to you, but Rules wise you could probably use Rebels & Patriots and I think the Perrys may have done some figures for this range, or possibly the Historicals Wargames Foundry.

Interested in how you choose which games to buy ? You buy from great shop in Liverpool ? Liked the video , thanks - often watch reviews of bigger games that I'd probably never have mental capacity to learn and play .

Hi James, thanks for both the video and the give away 😁 It's currently on my virtual (Vassal) table and I'm learning the game. I'm not the "artsy" person but really enjoy the presentation as well as historical notes - didn't know anything about the conflict until now...

Absolutely outstanding 😍 loving the look of them, I can't remember but are you using 60x30 mm base's for the unit's?

Congratulations 🎉

Superb units, looks real and splendid!

I love it that you did not put those hideous labels on top of the bases. If necessary put them underneath. Otherwise what's the point. You may was well use counters. The beauty of 2mm or to some extent 6mm is that you can make the table look like an actual full scale batter. So lablels defeat the purpose. IMHO

Hi, James, thanks for your kind comments! And indeed, it's somewhat difficult to make people interested in so-little known periods and conflicts. But that's why we make them! 😉

Congrats! On to 10k😂

Quadruple digits!

Hear, Hear

Well done! 👍👍

Richly deserved. I look forward to your posts.

Thanks for your review, I've heard about this one but gave it a pass - although the idea of a simple game was quite appealing, the abstract nature of it (reinforced by the expansion) put me off. Much prefer my historical simulations over abstracts 😁

Congrats on 1k subs i defo didnt sub 5 times

An honour just to be nominated! Congrats to przemekvozek, and thanks Prasutagus for your hard work and dedication to produce your videos. Appreciated and enjoyed while I'm busy painting!

Thanks a lot, perfect pronunciation of my name as well - it's not an easy one 😆

Congratz ro the lucky winner!

Look 👍

Thanks for the vid, hope you like this one, it's a really great game and definitely popular on the internet as well. I've managed to fit in both Gettysburg and Baetis Campaign in the box, but only put in a small counter tray for admin markers for all the games - as all counters are letter-marked for battle it's one of the few games I'm storing in baggies...

Another great video, thanks for your thoughts James.

Thanks for the mention to 'The Spanish Road', hope that you will enjoy the game and totally agree that the Tercios and the historical period that they were part of is really fascinating. Daniel Hernández Iniesta

Still looking for a set of hoplite rules that are actually interesting. This seems quite promising, especially given the author's previous works, which I've enjoyed. At the very least, perhaps I can field my hoplites on the table again! Thanks for your quick review.

Had a slow day at work, so came up with a few ideas for a moniker for the new room. I apologize in advance! - Ares' Closet - Kriegspielatorium - Lead & Counter Arena - Salle de Guerre - Tactical Distractions Salon - Dice End - the Sun Tzu Room - the Bickerage (based on Wellington's description of skirmishing as "Bickering") Ah well, I enjoy watching your videos. Hopefully my ideas don't lead you to ban me from your channel! 😉

Yes let's see a play through 👍😅

So little and so nicely done! Very impressive work and splendid units!

They look great, liking very much the basing system you used

the hungarian infantry has to be my favourite, they look really good all together

Thanks for an interesting and in-depth review, looks really good, quite easy to grasp but deep - similar to Rebel Fury and Limits of Glory systems it's good to see something new😁

I usually play with 6mm armies. When I see these small figures, I have more the "feeling" to see a big army.

How thick are the bases on those Italian Wars figs? 2mm or 3mm perhaps?

I never thought of naming a gaming room but then I never had a dedicated gaming room 😄 I'd suggest something to match your nick thematically, like "Agricola" or "Mons Graupius", though must admit "The Hall of the Mountain King" does hold a bit of appeal as well...

Thanks for your update! Ended up getting Bonaparte's Eastern Empire and the game looks excellent (plus produced in the UK 😀) It's scheduled to hit my table next so hopefully won't take too long...

Great update James, you've got a lot of great projects going on.

If you ever go back to Malta, at Ta'kali there is small Aircraft museum very interesting to visit!

A fine update 👍

Hastings game looks tremendous,Good variety of projects on the go.
