AlphaDog posted:I'm not sure if this is really the right thread, but I can't find anything closer. Close Action is a great game, if you don't mind detailed rules. But is best played with multiple players, each one controlling a single ship and trying to coordinate using signalling flags. If you plan to play with only 2, look at the Flying Colors series. There is an AAR at the second page of this thread.

Lichtenstein posted:Are there any cool boardgames about the Afghanistan intervention (the Soviet one)? You could try the Afghanistan game here: http://www.kcl.ac.uk/sspp/departments/warstudies/people/professors/sabin/consim.aspx Not great, but it's the best I've found about the Soviet invasion. Tekopo posted:On another note, I bit the bullet and bought Combat Commander: Pacific. I'm interested in the theater of operations because frankly I don't know anything about it, but does it stack well with Europe and Mediterranean? The Pacific one gives more control to the players. The cards let you jam or deny your enemy's weapons, and you can revive your units without using dice. Events are less common and they aren't as powerful as the ones in Europe. You could say it's more a game and less a series of unfortunate (and sometimes hilarious) events than before. Also nationalities are more diferentiated, Americans want to set on a good position to use all their firepower and artillery and Japanese will be trying to force melee combat. utana fucked around with this message at 16:37 on Sep 10, 2013 |
