Have War In The West, Is this game worth having also?

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.

Have War In The West, Is this game worth having also?

Post by IslandInland »

I have War In The West which covers the Italian theatre and more besides. I'm wondering if there is any point in buying this game.

Does it bring anything to the table that GG WITW doesn't?

Thanks for any replies.

I don't know anything about WiTW, but this game has a very good integrated supply/combat/strategic decision making model that is yonks ahead of the usual "just move as far as you want and attack as much as you want" systems that most games have.
