Wow, I just got hand on the issues and was able to read the review. Besides the fact that Mr. Emery seems to know jackshit about wargaming (He even claims Matrix games developed thw "Steel Panthers" series

), read this here, I quote directly: [QUOTE]" There are two sorts of hex gamers in this world: those who play for fun and those who think they�re Hitler, Napoleon or some other short-arsed megalomaniac who got their arse licked in Russia. Strategic Simulations' utterly fantastic "Panzer General" series combined hex-based gameplay with simple icons and a hint of RPG. It was the perfect hex game and sales figures refelected this. But few come close and most hex developers have stayed rooted in the past with a straight "boardgame-to-PC" conversion. And these to put it bluntly, cater for those with a Napoleon complex. "Korsun Pocket" falls into this category. "[/QUOTE] Allright Mr. Daniel Emery, so you call "me" a Nazi fanboy

? Because I fall into your second category of hex gamers? This is outrageous, one should sue the guy and the whole rubbish magazine. I fail to understand how an Editor in Chief can get something like this printed in a magazine. Would they dare to call all FPS kiddies lunatic wannabe killers with a mother complex ? You can be sure I will miss no opportunity to not recommend this mag to anybody of my friends
