<r> I love many of Matrix games (especially Decisive Battles series and GGWAW). I just wanted to share a great online game I found with like minded games. This is my review on IGN (forgive the typos):<br/>

Just turned 47. I am shocked there were no votes for under 35!. Is this because there are not many, or is it they don't bother with this forum?

RE: Playing with out supplies?

Playing with simple supply is reasonable. I play with advanced supply because plannning in advance where and how much supply is needed adds another dimension to the game for me.

I agree with this, which is why I prefer playing with the advanced supply to simulate the logistical limitations. But I still do not like to micromanage all those supply trucks every turn, which is why the auto-supply feature is so convenient. As ...

RE: Whats the best modern turn based strategy game?

ORIGINAL: Reverend Zombie

If you are into fantasy games, Dominions II is an excellent turn-based wargame.

I just picked up the Demo for Dominions II. In some ways it is similiar to GGWAW. I like it.

RE: Repair sends supplies all over the place

<t> The game is about Supply. As the Japanese this is doubly true. The power of the Japanese Fleet is purely based on how much and were your supply is. China is a tough nut but their supply situation mitigates the power of their numbers to conduct offensive opperations. They attacked and took one of ...
