A Wargamers Needful Things Review up

VR designs has been reinforced with designer Cameron Harris and the result is a revolutionary new operational war game 'Barbarossa' that plays like none other. It blends an advanced counter pushing engine with deep narrative, people management and in-depth semi-randomized decision systems.

Hi wodin,

Thanks for all the compliments. You forgot to mention Vic's excellent AI.

I feel like I should buy myself a beer after reading your review.

Then again, my wife would probably yell at me for drinking on the job.

Cheers,
Cameron

Not being properly informed, I just assumed Vic did all the work. Congrats Cameron, and a good game review.

The new website is a boon to me because I tend to like the games the writer(s) like and visa versa. I recently read two reviews on the HPS Ancients Wars series by two of the "top" wargaming sites. They could not have more different. Who to believe?

Adding coverage of certain Steam games would also be helpful. Good luck!

rosseau thank you!

I've contacted a lot of game publishers etc and obviously can only review the ones who agree. If you can suggest any others please PM me and I'll get onto them.

Thanks Vic, that really was only my second review. I didn't think I was particularly that good at it so it's great to hear I'm actually not that bad:) Gives me more confidence. I was good at creative writing at school but that was many many years ago now. I was actually told my writing looks illiterate not long ago! Though I know it's not that bad..grammar at time sis an issue..but I think the content is fine.
