Modern Wars: Volume I: Poll 1

As many of you know, Modern Wars: Volume I consists of two games.

I am presently in the middle of creating and writing up the Bootcamp Tutorials. I have completed Bootcamp One and started on Bootcamp Two for the Vietnam game.

My question is, should I create another set of Tutorials for the Middle East game as well, or is the Bootcamps that will be available in Vietnam be enough?

I voted for one game. Unless there are significant game-play differences between the two, a single tutorial of the basics should do. And really, it is only the basics you need to teach in this game; the rest is there in the manual. And there's common sense of course...you don't have to be Clausewitz to understand jungle is better concealment than desert. [;)]

I've always considered tutorials as a means to understand the game mechanics. If these are sufficiently shown in the Vietnam scenario, a tutorial in a middle east setting would be unnecessary.

Voted Two games this time, assuming there would be quite different weapons systems available. I would suggest you start with either bootcamp tutorial, and have the basics only there. Anything extra on the other game, just add them in a manner assuming the players are already familiar with the other?

I voted both games. Tactics nd weaponry would differ, and i am assuming there are going to be different units that would merit special mention in both eras.
