Hey, Vance, remember that AWESOME time at Origins when CoolStuffInc. had a copy on the shelf for $65 and YOU didn't have it at HOME yet?

Yeah, that was AWESOME.

Everyone's a comedian.... where's my $20! ($47.50 CDN)  >:(

I'm glad you mentioned that. I tried to send you $20 Paypal a month or two back, but screwed something up and it came back. It slipped my mind. Fortunately, Cyrano provoked you again, serving as an excellent reminder that I owed you the $20 he gave me to pay you.


So it's on the way via PayPal again. Hopefully. Maybe.

I'm glad you're buying beer with it. I was worried there for a minute that you might be planning on buying peach schnapps.  :'(

I had a chance to print and sleeve the upgrade kit v1.2 and run through a Campaign with the Blitz of Italy 1943.  The mechanics have been cleaned up and during the start of the third week I had to abandon the campaign as I lost one of my Panther and Elephant tanks and a Half Track and 2 commanders.  With just 6 so per week and a -2 because of a Artillery site, I was not going to get much further.  While I enjoyed the game, overall if you did not like the original rules and game-play this is not going to change your mind.  It is odd as I have mixed feelings about this one and may play another campaign or two before I decide where it stands in all of the DVG games I have.  I  have all of the Leader Series games and only miss Alexander in the Field Commander series (I will get eventually).

Has there been any word on the availability of the printed update kit?

I've been poking around what I thought were the relevant websites, but have found nothing.

The upgrade kit is being printed with the Sherman Leader game, or at least that's what I heard last, so a while to wait yet.....  :P

Anyone want my copy? Cheap?

Cyrano

There's a representation on the website that the update kits would be provided at no charge other than shipping?

That is correct, no charge except for shipping... Or free shipping if you order another game....

You know, I bet you would like this game if it didn't start you on the same position in the galaxy every time.  :tickedoff:

OK, Vance's rage aside, and Doug's bemused poking at my favorite Canadian (other than Stan Rogers, of course, but he's dead), is this thing available somewhere?

Gah!

No it is not. I repeat, it's not being printed alone. It is waiting until Sherman Leader is being printed to reduce the cost of printing. Only then will it be available.

Now having said all that, there is a print and play prerelease version alvailable on BGG... But, to me, it didn't improve the game just added more different rules....  :P

I suspect that if you wanted it, Vance could make a copy available at Origins ;)

Oh, the angry mounty remains dear to me...I counsel him, however, to re-read his earlier remarks and realize it was not at all clear that we were to wait until Sherman Leader comes out.

Which I must figure out some cunning way to get him to by.
