Get a move on it and let us know how it plays!
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

There is a review of this and some other WWII squad-based rules in a recent edition of Wargames Soldiers and Strategy magazine
(http://www.wssmagazine.com/cms/issues/wargames-soldiers-strategy-60).

IABSM rates fairly well.  IIRC, The Two Fat Lardies tend to focus their games on morale, command and control aspect of fighting rather than on the tools of war.
Now, the problem is, how to divide five Afghans from three mules and have two Englishmen left over.

Why don't you get it Brant and then let us know how it plays.  Save us all a couple bucks. :)
