Today I got out my old copy of a great SPI game called "Operation Typhoon. It is in mint condition but I discovered something that is so appauling I can't even find the words to describe why some one would do something so dastardly to this game.
When youmove your units in contact with the enemy you draw a chit that determines you combat value. They range from hign to low. I need either of the following:

1.someone to sell me the game even in bad shape as long as it has the complete combat chits for both sides and they are in good condition

2. Barring this I need a list and value and number of each chit. I have a friend who will priot me anew set but first I must get the information.

this post makesvery little sense to anyone unless they are old war game board players like myself. So help if you can.

I think I have a copy in unpunched condition.

I will check tomorrow. If I have one I will photocopy the counters needed and mail you the photocopy.

How about Grognards.Com ? I seem to recall they sell parts of older games, from the makers of days gone by. I purchased extra sheets for SPI's World at War. They were selling the rules and extra trays as well.

Placed that one. Enjoyed it but sold it when my collection went.

I won't bug you further but I do not need a photo of the combat chits used in Tyuphoon but just a list of each size step and the data on both sides. There are A&B chits for the Germans and A,B&C for the Russians. I have a friend who can print up a set if I can get the data. If you can't mamage it thanks anyway for trying.

Geeze, I thought someone died or something.

Sad event, yes, but in what context?
