Unboxing | Campaigns in Europe I: Drive on Leningrad (World at War 97)

[@kw9694]

Thank you just purchased game 10 minutes ago. My Grandfather died in Leningrad conflict, unfortunately he was lost by an artillery shell, or something like a grenade. I never could get a detailed answer, since it was second hand information and my relatives became angry talking about it when visiting Germany. I’m biracial, my Mother lost her Dad when she was approximately four years old. My late Grandmother, passed away approximately 1995, and the times we visited Germany, she always had this blank stare of sadness, like she wasn’t there at times, never remarried. My Mother becomes upset who is now going on 87 if I make any attempt to talk about it, these games sadly, help me connect to that side of my heritage. My Grandmother, having four children, took some significant time to get the family out of East Germany after the war, they were dumped there after the Czechoslovakians, and Russians removed them out Studenten land the country that was dissolved after the war, which had ethnic Germans living there. One final comment, the day will come that the Ukraine conflict will become a board game, however my personal view is that this conflict is a loss cause, and extremely dangerous. I’m going on 62, and it would be unfortunate if we get into a world conflict that would be of Biblical proportions worse than World War II.

Thank you, very helpful summary, especially for someone like myself who never played the original War in Europe series.

Being volume 1, there most probably will be some bugs to work out but that’s OK. Thanks for the look Gary, I should have a copy in hand soon.

Thanks much. The first unboxing video I've seen from you and I find it refreshingly coherent and succinct compared to some other game related material available on KZbin.

Thanks for giving us a look at what seems to be an interesting project, especially with J. Miranda apparently in charge. One admires his attention to detail and nuance--and so the counters have more than a single value to them (unlike another in-house designer). From what I understand from the video, there is only one scenario devoted to the specific situation of the sector occupied by Army Group North?

[@ardwulfslair]

That's right - just the one scenario.

@@ardwulfslair Thank you. Wish there might have been more, but it's a fine start.
