CGW - Wargame of the Year

Battles In Normandy is the third game in the Decisive Battles game series. Battles in Normandy recreates all aspects of the Normandy campaign, from the landings on the first day to the final climax of the campaign at Falaise. Strategic Studies Group rewrote the Decisive Battles game engine for Battles in Normandy with a host of new special rules for amphibious and airborne operations, plus a huge number of other enhancements.

As sabre said, it is the current issue where they name WoW Game of the Year and stick it to Doom3 and HL2 giving FPS to Painkiller. I guess that is what happens when the developers give exclusive scoops to their competition.

Unfortunately, the blurb describing the game's award is a whopping 54 words, and takes up less than 1/8 the page with a screenshot the size of a postage stamp...just got my issue in the mail yesterday.
