If you every wanted to teach a non-wargamer a wargame (without all the fiddly bits as with Tide of Iron) or you are looking for a great squad level tactical WWII wargame that takes a different approach than something like squad leader this is definitely worth a try.<br /><br />BTW got my GM#3, for some reason I'd thought I'd ordered one earlier but I hadn't.

They'd play for gold pieces, so my friends have a Gold Only rule for playing Tonk, and a GP is represented by the goldish $1 coins. <br /><br />http://www.bsfs.org/bsfstonk.htm<br />Reverend Dakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15589927717583694031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1954394848487110923.post-48160592094440924492013-03-22T13:33:52.418-04:002013-03-22T13:33:52.418-04:00Illuminati!

I am also a fan of FFG's Elder Sign...hmmm, I'm seeing a pattern here, I think. I also like Shadows over Camelot by Days of Wonder (which I own, but haven't been able to play much over the years).Anthony Simeonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04312134763577949405noreply@blogger.com
