Status: offline 		Thanks for the blog, very interesting. Will be following.

How does The Next War compare with the Central Front series? I have the five CF games and have never linked them together for the full campaign. Counters look similar, what scale does Next War operate at?

Cheers,

Despite this, I think that Next war has a superior level of detail as very few aspects of a modern war are abstracted; you literally have to think about and use at their best troops, airplanes, air defenses, electronic warfare, supply points, special forces, artillery, HQ, helicopters and more.

Thanks for that, sounds good. I might see if I can pick up a second hand copy somewhere to add to the collection.

Cheers
