Status: offline 		Just a note of warning - because of the number of games we now have changing the prices manually has become a prohibitively big task.

We have an automated batch price update system in place but it can't be run until Monday when Plimus are online (they don't work Friday/Saturday but work Sunday) and need a day when we are both online to perform the update and check it is working so we wont be going live with this till early next week.

Thanks Iain, but your response does not sound to promising. Are you saying that the "Deal of the Week" may not be coming back?

Status: offline 		Do any of the Close Combat series have random battles? Or some kind of battle generator? I haven't liked canned and static games since Civilization came out I think it were. It's almost all I buy anymore. I don't know why I bought TOAW III in december, I'll never play it really. Can I have a refund Matrixgames/Slitherine? I'll buy something else I promise. I barely play JT's Campaign series that I got also. But at least it does have computer generated skirmishes.

I haven't played it for awhile , I'd check the product page or the forum page for (random battle) info.

I just purchased Decisive Campaigns: The Blitzkrieg from Warsaw to Paris. I already own the most recent Decisive Campaigns and from what I understand, they retrofitted many of the features to the earlier game.

A good bargain for $20. No time to play at the moment but have considered this title for a while. It's one of the few Matrix games that I don't own that interests me.

Have you purchased LnL:HoS? It is very good, especially if you like tabletop tactical games. Its early of course but Im making the prediction of it being Wargame of the Year.

Purchased and loving it. A quality release. Of course I have a huge interest in these types of games, a genre very unrepresented imo. While it's not ASL, it's the closest thing done to date that shares some similarities. They did it very well and even though I can usually find plenty to fault early with all the games I buy, I have not found any big turn offs yet. YMMV.

Eric, thanks for mini review of LnL:HoS! Sounds like you have played alot of ASL...have you keep up with all the modules over the years? I own all the modules except the last one or two. I have not played ASL that much but the rule book is THE reference for WWII tactical board games , IMHO. Also, I like your new avatar...what game is that from?

And the avatar is from LnL:HoS. No chit.

I doubled down and also picked up CC:Wacht am Rhein since it was 50% off when purchased with the other game at check out. So my CC collection is complete now, at least the games I wanted.

Now I just need time.
