Great game but might be hard to find unused. Still have my copy and played it recently.

A new art print and play version of Carrier from Victory Games 1990 is available from GJK who has done some beautiful mods for some Matrix Game products such as his map for Guns of August.
I'm selling PDF's of my kit for $35. I've heard from Jon Southard and I have his "blessing" on it. The kit includes everything needed for the game, my redrawn map (enlarged hexes, new design), all the counters plus extras (5/8", new look), charts (redrawn and organized as a booklet), and rules (including errata and color counter samples which clears up the common confusion of what the different colored chits are for). I've found that
www.posterninja.com has very reasonable printing options for the map and there's a number of tutorials for mounting your own counters (and I'd be happy to share my "technique" as well).

I've had a couple of goes with
N: Napoleonic Wars, a Ben Madison game designed for solitaire play. Pretty good, but a bit tedious having to look up stuff all the time. Something like this would be a great candidate for a computer version, to automate all of the look-ups.

IMO alot of solitaire board games are prime candidates for PC conversion. All the art is already done. There is no need to program an AI as the game system is in place. The game system is also tried and tested. I also think it is a necessary way to go to get younger generations into wargaming.
