What is your relationship to WITE?

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

What is your relationship to WITE?

Post by spinecruncher »

From one who can't get enough history on the most dramatic conflict in human history, the more I learn and play this game the more I totally love it and feel my gaming fate as being sucked into this! Wow, this is a great game!

the replay-ability is, well, rather indefinite.

Any other thoughts on your relationship to this game?

My relationship with WITE is kind of like that between Kim Basinger and Mickey Rourke in 9 1/2 weeks, although I am not sure if I'm Basinger or Rourke in this relationship. But it's definitely sick and hot.

They had a chance to make a great game and screwed it up.

Like a homing pigeon, keep coming back to it.

Not sure what the foundation of your criticism is, as you have not mentioned it here. But if it's because you do not feel the game is historical, as I have heard others complain, I think the only way to get a really historical flavor is to be reincarnated into the eastern front. A game is a game after all, sometimes we forget.

I cannot think of anything with a beter historical flavor though, perhaps Case Blue comes in, and some TOAW scenarios. I never enjoyed TOAW that much. I felt the game play, mechanics and everything else about it are too generica for my taste. WITE has flavor where TOAW for example, is beer, labeled as "beer."

It depends on which side I'm playing. On one hand you have Mother Russia and the other the Fatherland.
