ORIGINAL: Ramses I sense 1944 in the air. The year of decisive campaigns (in the West that is). warspite1 God, I hope not.... a) I just don't see the fun in playing such a one-sided game. One side has a massive airforce and a massive navy. The only way the Germans can win is to eject the Allies at the beachhead. b) Why yet another game on the same old subject. Sure, with the command system the game makers have shown how to breathe new life into a scenario that has been gamed a billion times, but 1944 in the west? c) How about something new? No guarantee as to which side will win, both sides have plenty of interesting units - fleets, air forces, tanks and infantry. So much interaction at a political level - Hitler/Mussolini (Mussolini's war impacting on Hitler's big plans) - Mussolini (and his ambition)/Graziani - Churchill(and his action this day)/and his commanders - Churchill/Cunningham and what naval assets can be spared for the Mediterranean Fleet - the loss of France and the whole Free French/Vichy French situation - Japan enters the war/Australian need for withdrawal of units. A scenario that begs to be wargamed - especially with the interaction between all these competing claims.
