My first game was Panzer Blitz. When I deployed to Europe I ended up with 10 sets of counters and 4 sets of maps. We would set up division sized fights in Bn HQ and fight all weekend!

Div-sized game of Panzer Leader at Origins a few years ago.

Yes, that a 5x3 map setup

We only had 5 sets of counters for Panzer Leader! But we would mix maps like you guys did there as well.

Good Hunting.

New Zealander now; in the British Army 26 years - first posting 3 Div BAOR 1980 ... spent 7 of next 10 years all over these maps, although in the abstracted supply chain (RAOC and REME)

Gaming since mid 70s for fun, then did more in the Army under the guise of Operational Analysis.

it was 10am! (the beer came out around 11. Much earlier and people would've asked why they weren't fishing)

From New Jersey, USA. Craft/Artisanal Beer Geek Sales at a Liqour Store in NJ. Been computer wargaming on and off since High School. Got back into it after reading Team Yankee, which was recommended to me by my late Uncle Bill who was a Armored Cavalrymen stationed in Korea during the 60's/70's. I have never served in the Armed Forces, but I have family and friends who have. I used to be into operational/tactical WW2 computer wargaming, but Cold War gone hot has been peeking my interests lately.

Anyways I was a longtime lurker until now, and have been loving this game since purchasing it.

Btw- speaking of Team Yankee, would it be possible to create a "Team Yankee" campaign?

Thanks.

Welcome to the forums!

Thanks for buying the game.

Anything is possible to create with the game I've thought about doing some conversions.

There are so many out there. All the board game scenarios/campaigns. All the book scenarios/campaigns. All our expansion and module ideas. All those untapped theaters and time frames.

I'm thinking I'm going to have to let someone else do some of these conversions. There is just so much time.

The goal is to add more content to the game anytime we have an interaction with the FPC community. Whether that is a patch, an update, an expansion or a new module. Nothing is out of the realm of possibility.

Good Hunting.

MR
