But it does allow you to have a fun game where there is no issue re some badly worded rule. What I like is that it allows one to set up a large game and not get bogged down in some minutiae.

Re Honours of War, there is a lot going for the rules, but between the murderous artillery and having to rally back all the time I thought there are other wargames rules that are more enjoyable.Independentwargamesgrouphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07019172667119107650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1558595533686058562.post-86974643543641993312019-02-09T15:54:45.466-08:002019-02-09T15:54:45.466-08:00Enjoyed this Robbie thank you - though not hearing...Enjoyed this Robbie thank you - though not hearing your somewhat dismal account of your loss.
