Just read the post from Veldor. I have been looking for a copy of Third Reich by Avalon Hill. That's when found they were bought and neutered by Hasbro. Shame really.
Has anyone played it? I have a thing for boardgames again and wish I hadn't sold World In Flames all those years ago. Wonder where I could get Third Reich from these days.

Doh! Just saw the thread about 3rd Reich and see it had been made into a computer game.

Options, you have options dude.

http://www.warplanner.com/

The software at that link will allow you to play actual Advanced Third Reich over your computer with others.

http://www.aworldatwar.com/

That link will set you up with the latest incarnation of the actual board game as well.

This thread is a required read if you have any serious interest in Third Reich PC

And what's cool is you can find the game right here if it interests you.

And if you get the game, stop here to make sure you get the most out of your efforts.

Try this site for Third Reich

http://pages.sprint.ca/wargames/index.html

Click on classic titles and it should be listed (Board Game)

Ebay also has quite a good listing for Avalon Hill Games.

Good point. I did not pay attention to where SIdeslip was located.
