Major faux pas

Piercing Fortress Europa is a new game from veteran game designer Frank Hunter, which covers the campaigns of the Western Allies from July, 1943 through the end of April, 1945 in Sicily and Italy. Each area has its own map and time scale to best represent the campaigns for Sicily and Italy and the player is offered complete freedom, limited only by a historical order of battle and logistics model, to plan his operations and explore all of the many “what ifs” that the Italian theater has to offer.

Major faux pas

Post by FrankHunter »

I was just looking over the manual and realized my artist isn't in the credits. That will be corrected immediately.

Gary Krockover did both maps and the counters. I asked him to do it as I thought he did a nice job with the alternative map in Guns of August. I like his graphic style and I think the maps are very functional, easy to read and yet are still attractive.

Also Brad Hunter (no relation) helped with the OB which was very nice of him as I was having problems finding out just when Unit X left the theatre and when it returned etc.

Both will be added to the credits as soon as I update the manual.

Gary is an outstanding talent. It didn't surprise me to see he had done the artwork for you.

Good Hunting.
