Damn email caught me at a weak moment yesterday, i dropped 7 titles in the basket, applied the bulk order discount and never looked back. 3 SB titles, 3 PZ Campaign titles, all west front and threw in REN. Still waiting for my email download links.

Definitely picking up Waterloo today.  Can afford only one other title. Have to decide between a Squad Battles game (a series I've never tried) or ACW Antietam. budd....how are the SB titles or are you new to that series as well?

I love SB. They were the first Tiller games I got from HPS. I love the smaller scale, which is mostly on the platoon and company level, and find the scenarios much more manageable.

Which is the better game, Advance of the Reich or the newer, Red Victory?

SB used to be my favorite scale, think I lean more towards PB but that might be because I've played it more. I'd echo what JH said regarding SB.

Slash I was faced with that same question first time I purchased an SB game, went with RV because it has just about 3 times as many scenarios to choose from and was newer.

My understanding is that Red Victory is the more popular multiplayer game, but I spent more time with Advance as I prefer to play the Germans.

It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge.  War endures.  As well ask men what they think of stone.  War was always here.  Before man was, war waited for him.  The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.  That is the way it was and will be.  That way and not some other way.
- Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian


If they made nothing but WWII games, I'd be perfectly content.  Hypothetical matchups from alternate history 1980s, asymmetrical US-bashes-some-3rd world guerillas, or minor wars between Upper Bumblescum and outer Kaboomistan hold no appeal for me.

I guess it's sort of nice that the word "tactical" seems to refer to some kind of seriousness during your moments of mental clarity.

What are some of your favorite German-side scenarios in RV, out of curiosity?  Curious to play that one more.

Checked out the new demo for Campaign Waterloo with the new units and maps by WDS.

Ten minutes later.....30 dollars poorer but a happy man. What a difference !

I would have bought more at the reduced price but will wait until more Napoleonics are upgraded.

I'd really like to try that Campaign Shennandoha. 

I read the book Stonewall in the Valley a couple of years ago and really enjoyed it.  I wonder how the extra-long marches Stonewall could do over the Union armies could be depicted in a wargame?

There was a really good review of Campaign Vicksburg years ago back when we were on Wargamer, I think.  I really enjoyed the review, but I've always thought the Vicksburg campaign would be a pretty boring game.  Curious to try that out, too.

I have Campaign Gettysburg; I just haven't spent any time at all with it.  The Tiller games always sound more fun than they are once I tackle that interface, LOL.
