I do like to know what's inside a box and how something will play as I don't like things too light. However these boxes were sealed, so the game title and the box artwork did it for me ... the marketing people must love me :-)<br /><br />I think I probably prefer it to C&C because the cards only really limit you to which formations are available and so there is always something that can be done with those units that you had plans for anyway and units will generally only activate once per turn unless they come under the influence of the army commander and so the command chaos seems to be done in a more intuitive way. I also like the idea of the General attack chit.Normhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05031444717952755557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5368677310334370714.post-10608863180103658612017-07-16T04:57:30.125+00:002017-07-16T04:57:30.125+00:00I really like this game and we play it through in ...I really like this game and we play it through in an evening at our club.Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03791963346486185268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5368677310334370714.post-100132357753875102017-07-16T04:27:04.053+00:002017-07-16T04:27:04.053+00:00Job well done on this review, Norm!

Was it the topic, the system, the small play area, or something else? As a "beer and pretzels" type complexity, how would it compare to C&C Napoleonics?Jonathan Freitaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07862373894196924886noreply@blogger.com
