Thanks on the patch. I am one of the original consumer wargamers. I started buying AH games at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry store forty years ago. In the intervening period only two or three events have moved the industry foreward as much as this new system. SPI, particularly Red Simonson, discovered the back of the unit counters giving us partial strength reductions in the '70s, computerization of board games (mostly poorly done) in the '80s, the Steel Panthers engine in the '90s and now the SSG engine. Other engines constitute grognard advances (TOAW, HPS) but are not as much fun, simply put. This relegates them to total niche status.
