Time to Kill Hitler.... Black Orchestra







           

GJK

Also not a "hardcore" wargame by any stretch but a fun one- me and my brother played "Fires of Midway" after turkey dinner.  We didn't finish but we had a good time.


Also played Ubercat in ASL this morning (S1: Retaking Vierville) via VASL.  Unfortunately for him, my dice were hot and his didn't get hot soon enough so the Americans were able to keep the town secured from the Germans.  Planning on picking up with S2 on Tuesday.

Cool!  I haven't seen nor heard about this one before...checking it out now.  I recently played "The Plot to Assassinate Hitler" and it's not a bad game once the graphics were spruced up.  This one looks to have some RPG elements to it.

Yes it is!  Beck and Stauffenberg finally devised a plot to poison Hitler with a package.  They gathered the needed material and worked to limit their suspicion. Stauffenberg was able to convince some officers to join the cause which now increased the chances of the plot to succeed.   However, we need Hitler to be in a unsecure location, and at present he was.  Beck and Stauffenberg met in Hannover where Stauffenberg gave the names to Beck of the officers.  Now the stage was set, Beck needed to move into position and then deliver the package..... The Military support for Hitler was also low enough to attempt.  After Stauffenberg's turn Hitler MOVES!  argghhh.  Operation Barbarossa takes off and Hitler moves to Wolfsschanze and we have to abort the attempt and Hitler's Military support increases....

I have sooooo many great games I want to stick on my table...unfortunately, I can't do that and modelling and so I must be patient.

Perhaps I have to look at modelling in the summer (because of the better light) and boardgaming in the winter??

Decisions decisions.  ???

Very cool! Have you played the modern version? I'm interested to hear how they compare.  :dreamer:

I do, and have played it quite a bit.  I'll report back after a game or two.  There is a ton of cards... and the miniatures are pretty nice.

Arrived today. Got it in a gift exchange over at BGG.

Just received 'Tanga' by Legion Games via Limey-Yank. The components are excellent and I'm really looking forwards to playing this.

I'm hopeful of getting a copy of their 'Dien Bien Phu' game as well.

I got this from DVG, too...I didn't ask for it (though I did ask for a copy of U-Boat Leader for GH review/possible AAR, which came a bit ago) so it was a nice surprise to see it arrive. I was more than a little surprised at the sheer number of add-on packs...15? 16? Looks like they sent me what you have. :)

I plan on doing an unboxing video as soon as I can...next couple of days, I hope. I'm getting sick of working all the time.

Also have Enemy Coast Ahead, Conquest of Planet Earth, Fortune and Glory - Treasure Hunters expansion, and Shadows of Brimstone - Frontier Town expansion, besides the above two. Wish there was money/careers in just writing about games.  :))

You need a bigger table.
