Not sensitive enough? Shall we circle around the campfire and sing songs? Discussion of facts have nothing to do with feelings, unless you are sensitive to the truth. And people who want others to be sensitive to their feelings should first exude a similar sensitivity if they wish to receive it in return.

Thanks Mitch!

Damn, really? Have you tried a different browser, cleaned out your cache etc?

​@@MoesWargames i'm so not into tech and computers and so. i just installed a different browser and it is solved! thanks for the tip!! I CAN CHAT AGAIN!!

I have proudly only backed 1 game on Kickstarter and that is, again said proudly...AMFS!!!! Thanks Herm!

@@jumpmaster82nd. Thank you so much!

Yea, the activism in gaming is so stale at this point and since that schtick has already been mastered in the hobby gaming space by others these folks are looking for somewhere to spread their own version of the same schtick and the wargame community is the place they're attempting it because it's a laid back group. These are fringe eurogamers who play some strategy games with historical themes and then think they're wargamers, and all of a sudden are in a place of authority to where they feel they can dictate how the community acts and what they play. However, I find it very curious that you never see them active in any actual wargame discussions outside of their little echo chambers, nor do they bring anything of value to the wargame community. Very few, if any of these people are even known in the wargame space except in maybe some small area that dabbles with their fringe. If they wanted to effect any change the smarter move would be to first become a productive member of the community before attempting to dictate any changes. Especially when they continually show ignorance to history in favor of activism, i.e. the fauxrage over Confederate "slavers", yet "let's play Romans!", always cracks me up. They find offense everywhere, and if there's any pushback they then change their approach to the topic and try to position themselves as the virtuous truth holders while at the same time playing the perpetual victim card. It must be very tiring seeking out offense everywhere, but this is the new generation who wasn't brought up to dust themselves off when they get knocked down and to get back up. So, it's to be expected that they'll get booboo's everywhere. I am curious as to why they claim to be interested in wargames (state sanctioned murder), as the intent of every move on the battlefield is to push back and kill the enemy to take ground and other necessary objectives. If they find these topics so inappropriate and too sensitive, then why venture into historical gaming since history is so incredibly violent? I think they may want to consider that before trying to dictate to a long established group how they need to change to suit the feelings of a new and apparently needy group of folks.

That's what activists want, it's not happening. They can continue that BS in hobby gaming where it's pretty standard.

None that I'm aware of currently. You can play both sides to the best of your ability, which I love doing because I always end up surprising myself. lol

Happy to help! You're right, it is a great looking game and looks like it's going to be a lot of fun for everyone!

Thank you! I hope you enjoy it!

Exactly! That's one of Herm's awesome skills as a designer, making compelling games that are fun and are pretty much for anyone interested in the subject matter!

I've ordered this game after the first review I saw. Can't wait to play it. I hope for more in the futur (Antietam maybe ?)

@@monseigneurchildebert8329 Thanks for the support! And yes, the cornfield at Antietam is the next one planned.

Always happy to talk about your games my friend, you're the best!

Glad you found it helpful! Thanks for watching and the kind comments!

Thanks brother, appreciate you watching!

@@MoesWargamestill I can’t brother

Your bank account takes a hit today, but forever you will be sending steel downrange and having a blast playing both of these really fun wargames! Enjoy!

If I end up buying a house that I am currently looking at, which has a large front room for gaming, I'll be sending you an invite. An easy excuse to come visit SD again.

:)

The perpetual enemy of wargamers everywhere! Scheduling is my greatest challenge! lol

Oh yea, I do it often. lol

Thanks! You should give it a shot, I think you'll dig it!

Totally different type of game. This is strictly solitaire, with the insurgents coming at you through random draw. There is a solo bot for 2nd Fallujah but it's a 2p game that is quite fun and can be a very tough slog for the Marine player also.

Not yet because I had to switch to working on two very large video projects, for The Last Gamble and Air & Armor which is finishing up now. Art and I will get back to this soon enough.

Woohoo! Happy to hear you got it so quickly!

@seanmulroy6897 just commented here that he just got his and he too is in Oz. So hopefully you can get it quickly as well!

Just got mine in NZ. Brought on line and only took 6 days to arrive

Excellent!

Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks for watching! The link to the game's purchase page is in the video notes above, as I always place them. Enjoy the game when it comes in!

It's sad when we have in the midst of our great community a handful of chucklehead who engage in nasty and negative business like that. Nothing wrong with complaining about the delays and being disappointed about said delays, I agree with that sentiment, but there's no cause for personal attacks, wrongful allegations, doxxing, and attacking families. We're better than that and we need to hold those people to account by calling out that level of bad behavior. I agree 100% with you, it's appalling. No worries on me holding a spoon, that's reserved for the shit stirrers only. ;) Thanks for watching the video!

There are 4 maps in the base game and an additional 9 in the expansion. Sorry for not breaking them all out but this was not my usual preview style of look but a quick first look so people could see there are multiple copies out and about and everyone WILL be getting their games as soon as they can be put on a ship and make their way across the sea. Hope that helps! :)

Thanks!

You're in for quite a treat! :)

8' maps for both games, allowing for the monster scenarios in each. Gorgeous maps too!

It's a beauty, you're going to love it!

I can't help it, it gives me a Moody Blues vibe. ;)

Thanks! :)

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

Good question for Rich!

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

Amen on interactive boks

We felt so bad for Nate. His 3 year old decided to block up the sink and let it overflow, immediately right before the show started. lol

Agreed.

That's the aim, to show the game in action with proper instruction from the designer. :)

Sorry, that was the mic that Stuart was using for the teach. :(

You're correct. Wargames that are complex as this one is will definitely take time and effort to not only learn how to play, but to play well. It's not a terribly difficult game to learn but it's got a lot of layers, which is where the complexity comes in. Keeping in mind the many different facets and then working through them to tackle the problems you'll find across the map is where one can really spend a lot of time mulling over your options. This is the type of game that warrants its own notebook I think. Keeping notes and ideas about your gameplay experiences along with ideas to try in situation in the future. Since we can't have staffs to remind us of these things we've got to keep notes! :)

Thank you for taking the time to comment Kirk, I appreciate it and hope you're finding the videos helpful!

Thanks Aaron! It's an all you can eat food coma in a box. lol

lol

Thanks Billy, glad you're enjoying them and hope they're helping you. All five videos for the series are currently available, so you can watch them anytime you want!

Thank you for watching! :)

Glad it's making you feel more comfortable with the idea of getting the game!

Must agree. Seems like an enormous amount of things to check off (looking down the Combat Modifiers Chart) to resolve each Combat. I'm sure that during play it will be very interesting to overlook a modifier until your opponent reminds you of it. Still preordered it, and can't wait to get it. Danny S. Parker is the ultimate Bulge authority, so I'm sure all this stuff wasn't just shoved into the game for laughs. That being said, I'm certain that I'll be restricting myself to the (hopefully available) smaller scenarios.

That's a long wait but I think you'll be very pleased! Hope it arrives for you soon!
