fastback -> Decisions, Decisions (12/17/2013 11:12:43 PM)

Generally I prefer strategic or operational level games to the tactical, but I want to round things out with either Battle Academy or Conflict of Heroes (or both??).

I have some idea of both form reading the forums. Is BA superseded by Conflict of Heroes or is the scale slightly different? Are they sufficiently different to make both a different experience?

For context and my perspective, I am not sure anyone has really topped the Panzer Blitz series for that elusive combination of detail and playability, or stated differently, depth of experience without paralyzing micro management. I want my perfect simulation without reality, I suppose. Opinions out there? (I am ducking as I ask)

COH is squad level, single vehicles and plays like a board game. BA is abstracted somewhat squad level. John Tiller's Campaign Series, also sold here, is platoon level and has been compared to PB and PL.

BA only has one height level. Distance is also abstracted.

Thank you for a clear summary. Yes, I have Tiller's system and I agree with the description.

You will not go wrong with either Battle Academy or Conflict of Heroes, BA is a more abstracted, quick, and fun CoH is more intense, tougher, and still fun.

Have to agree with Max Mike on this.

Yeah coh is more realistic whereas BA is more checkers and chesslike. I like Coh more than BA.
