Pavlov's House

[z1812]

I recently bought Pavlov's House and quite enjoy it. The game system is a bit different but very clever. I haven't won yet. It is fair to say that it is deceptively simple, but so far, at least for me, the devil is really in the details.

At one point I forgot about providing food and lost the service of 17 soldiers........and subsequently lost the battle. At $10 Canadian it really is a good buy.

Has anyone had the ability to use the suppression tokens against the infantry soldier activation on any of the colored tracks?  When the Wehrmacht card is shown and you roll a die, goes to the track and you have some suppression tokens in same color tracks, I didn't have the ability to use them when I played the game.

I haven't come across that yet.

I noticed on Steam that they're working on a patch. 

I'm assuming this game won't be perfect until it's got a few patches under its belt, but even so I have no regrets about buying it (my copy off the second printing and a map arrived the day before I bought it on Steam).  There are some very good walkthroughs on YouTube, and I think you should be able to find them by going to the video section of Pavlov's House on BoardGameGeek.

I would suggest that if you see anything amiss you mention it on the Steam forum, because the relevant people are more likely to see your comments there.

Has anyone used the Storm Group card yet?

Here's the link to the page with all the videos at BoardGameGeek.  You can learn the rules by watching the walkthroughs in order, or you can go with the ingame tutorial.

On the computer port front, they've now put out a couple of patches and are working on a third.
