Title: If you want TAL, Nimitz or Tiger from DVG, a new kickstarter is up.
Post by: Yskonyn on November 16, 2019, 01:51:28 AM
This time with a few expansions.
Already funded in day one!

I backed TAL (Thunderbolt / Apache Leader) and its Expansion 1. Hope it can make it so that we'll get Exp 2 for free! :)

Runs for about 20 days more.

How does all this work with pledging?  What time frame do games come out?

I just picked up a used copy of Nimitz for $30 CDN last week.  Wish I'd known about this KS because it's $50 to get the upgrades or $80 for a complete copy of v2

Does anyone know about the changes to the Tiger Leader?  I have GMT tank duel, are they close?

Boy, you got a great deal on that!

I just got the Nimitz upgrade for the unwrapped Nimitz I have.

I tried playing it a few days ago.  I dunno....something about the game just seems off.  It's weird that infantry doesn't get attacked on islands if certain conditions aren't met.  And there's no mechanism for battleships conducting shore bombardments.  Also, land based aircraft seem useless because they can't take part unless there's already a presence & airfield on an island.  Airfields, unlike infantry, seem to get taken out way too easily.  Naval aircraft just magically replenish so why would you waste your supply points on land based planes?

No, they aren't even remotely close.  Both fun games, though!
