Quick look by Moritz Eggert
One of the best ETO WWII wargames in recent years, large in scope but still potentially
accessible to the light fare A&A crowd (as some rule mechanics actually have some
similarities). The Special Action system works especially well, and gives the game an interesting
unpredictability without cumbersome rules. All in all the game is much more complicated than many
think, and some special rules exceptions are well hidden in the rules (which are otherwise well
edited) and the end game may drag into an endless dicefest if the axis player simply hoards all his
units in a few well defended spaces. But still this is an excellent game that will satisfy many a
gamer for years to come.
