This is a great game if you have a decent gaming rig. Try the new 'Classic' gameplay mode online for a challenge.

Thanks for the offers.

gonna look at joining The Wargamer tomorrow to enter into the tourney. Sounds like fun even if I might be a horrible player.

I'd sign up, but unfortunately it coincides with a planned vacation.

Good luck gents.

I'm in. Need to brush up on some tactics for The Gap. Lost the last few playing that one.

What side were you playing when you lost?

I have yet to find a human opponent. It is my fault because I do not have a consistent schedule for when I am available, but maybe some day.

The Germans. 1 loss because of bad dice rolls imo and the others to superior tactics. I did win that scenario twice as the Germans although in 1 game it came down to my last AP and CAP to secure the victory hex. It all depends how the LMG's fare.

Glad the practice games I just played with Jamm weren't the tourney or it would be lights out for me already. I was thoroughly trashed.

I wouldn't say trashed. Both games were well played and you learn so much more playing another person.

The wargaming gods ( die rolls ) and a few timely cards helped my cause.

If we make it past the first round we'll have to practice again, unless of course we play each other,..

Well, things didn't go so good for me in the tourney and I was out-played in both games. Good job Eric Rutins and Hugi and good luck in the next round.

Missouri,

You are a very good player and you beat me the last time we played. You definitely could have gone all the way. The dice and cards were kind to me this time.

I didn't like the random cards thing. Both games my opponents got better cards than I did. Both games were closer than the score indicates. Both players got crappy dice rolls all the time [:D]
