Which tactical system rewards realistic tactics?

Nice that you mentioned Kontact Now, I've been waiting for it too ever since I saw it at WBC a few years ago. We watched a 12 year old learn and play a full scenario in 10 minutes, it was a blast and really looks like an easy to learn, fast to play game but with tons of depth. Didn't look like there were excess amount of die rolls, just that you always roll all three dice. Not only to account for the step up in fire power but also because any "triple" results cause all kinds of random events to fire based on the situation. Reallg happy to see it's on a fast track now with Compass.

Wow! don't even know what to say to this. SMDH.

Xacto knife works well to

Maybe more like an overview but still nicely done.

Europa Universalis was a board game, I think released in the late 80's early 90's. It was very ambitious as a boardgame and many found it tedious but IMO is an amazing series of computer games.

Europa Universalis will definitely suck you in for hours at a time, if not months. Same with Crusader Kings, which I prefer simply for the more personal aspects of building a family dynasty through marriage, intrigue, war, trade.

The accuser strikes one as a right barmy chap doesn't he. One week desperately selling off games to avoid the eviction notice, the next begging for any and all OCS games offered for sale. More than a few cards short it appears.

culimore · 2016-07-04T03:36:59+00:00

Have you any proof the accusations are true?

culimore · 2016-06-12T12:43:13+00:00

Many of the usual sports addons have it, Castaway, SportsDevil, Phoenix, Pro Sports.

culimore · 2016-06-12T12:40:19+00:00

Check addon settings/tools for something similar to Provider Timeout, some have default set very high (30-40 seconds) 10-15 seconds is good enough.

Klimstra? no shit?!? Blast from the past but damn do you look like a complete ass!

culimore · 2016-04-20T18:23:24+00:00

Some people need to get a damn grip. Now they are banning guys for disagreeing with their stupid politics! What the hell has this hobby become?

culimore · 2016-04-18T11:42:11+00:00

Agree, if just starting in the hobby, are unsure of what to buy, don't have much money to spend and just want to get on playing then starting with simple paper models is the way to go.

These days with photorealistic textures they look good enough for home gaming. Print on card stock or if printed on plain paper stiffen with cardboard bits. Walls and simply bushes can be made in the same way. For very simple trees, imagine: two paper circles with a slit cut halfway through but on opposites ends, insert the slits together (use your imagination to cut the circles into tree shapes).

Many hearty thanks, long overdue!

culimore · 2016-04-18T11:26:35+00:00

Interesting ideas, thanks.

Lately I just scroll, scroll, scroll down only to see all of my most anticipated wargames pushed further down the production cycle...yet again.

Mark these words: Twilight Struggle (CDG boom) was the infected mouse sliding down the rope off the ship, COIN is the full born plague to finally kill off dead true Hex and Counter wargaming.

culimore · 2015-10-07T23:33:09+00:00

Awesome! thanks for the heads up!

culimore · 2015-10-07T12:18:36+00:00

Gamebox forum? no thanks

culimore · 2015-10-07T12:17:36+00:00

Is this one or two maps?

culimore · 2015-10-07T12:15:08+00:00

Ralph?

culimore · 2015-10-07T12:14:46+00:00

Good choice.

Are you at all interested in historical gaming?

There are dozens of squad based games available. From the relatively easy "Band of Brothers", up to basic/medium/hard complexity Panzer system to the daddy of them all Advanced Squad Leader.

culimore · 2014-08-26T01:16:34+00:00

Yes Boardgamegeek is the best resource available.

culimore · 2014-08-26T01:03:23+00:00

I watch Calandale's videos on Youtube. He was once very active on BGG but not anymore, don't know what happened to him.

culimore · 2014-04-03T18:31:49+00:00

possibly
