I mean I'm happy with it but its hardly three games in one. Its a two player game and it has two different solo modes. Three rulebooks and maps seems excessive still.

Are the components poor quality? Not to be a special snowflake but poor quality cardboard is unacceptable. There is also supposed to be a new version, different theater, coming later this year.

That guys a bit precious. I wouldn't say its poor quality but its also not like super nice like Unconditional Surrender. I had a little problem with one of the maps. They came packed on the bottom of the box so the folds were super folded and i got a little tear when unfolding them. Its still fine to play on. That vid makes the counters look bad but they're fine. Some were a bit off centre but nothing you cant work out at a glance.

I think that given Compass prices are generally higher than GMT games with the same number of components, it's annoying that the component quality is like this - slightly misaligned (1mm off stuff) is fine. Stuff where you get significant bleed from the next counter along is not. tomdidiot fucked around with this message at 23:55 on Mar 10, 2020 |

So it's "a bit precious" to expect a $150 game to have correctly printed, at least average quality counters and cards, and to not arrive with maps already creased to the point of tearing on second unfold? You sound more cowed than a Splotter fanboy or Biden voter.

No I just thought he made big deal of it. I got the game after seeing that vid and its really not so bad. I get people expecting more of a deluxe set for the money but I feel I got my moneys worth.

Well, I'm under loving quarantine now, so I just ordered the Starter Kit for World at War '85 from Lock n' Load to kill time and see if it's a Thing I'll like. I've been playing their Tactical series with their Heroes of Normandy module, and really like the speed of it and the battle generator. It seems to be getting good reviews from the board game dorks, so hopefully this'll give me something to zoom out on a little - and in the modern era!

WAW85 is fun. I have one of the games from the previous iteration of it (Eisenbach Gap I think?). It's definitely on the simpler side, but it's quick and fun. I think the newer version has more bells and whistles.

The big advantage of EAA is that the solo mode actually pretty much plays the game under some rules similar to your own so you can play against it. It's really good for that, but otherwise, I think most of the money is in the cards, oddly enough.

I need a case-blue/BTR sized OCS game of the CFNA. CFNA is really good, though. If I had it in Uni and could play it at nights and weekends, that would've been a great time over several years.

I'm playing The Dark Sands right now and it's a lot of fun, but it's only a two mapper. I also have The Desert Fox (with Trail of the Fox which makes it monster-sized) and The Legend Begins, but I haven't played through those.
