What do you recommend? - PoorOldSpike - 09-30-2007

Hi, I've been playing Combat Mission WW2 non-stop for 5 years and fancy a change, so can anybody recommend any good ACW games?
Which one do you all play most?
Thanks

I'd recommend any of the HPS Simulation titles. They not only provide single battle scenarios but also campaign trees where your operational decisions lead to different battles until a campaign winner is decided. You can look here to see the different titles: http://www.hpssims.com/

Shilo, Gettysburg, Atlanta are pretty good.

Okay thanks, incidentally does anybody know if Strategic Plus Software are still in business?
They were a shop near London specialising in selling a great range of computer wargames for many years but now their website seems to have vanished and they're not in the phone book

POS, i used to use SPS as well, i think they shut down?

Anyway to buy HPS titles in the UK go to http://www.duchet.com, they give a great service, all the UK guys i know use them :)

If it's the same SPS that used to be found at Hampton Hill then I'm very sad to say they are gone. Served me well for over twenty years. Now though like Foul says the best to go with from the U.K is Duchet good service. And no offence to those who live across the pond but us Brits tend to get the HPS titles first from them.

Strategic Plus Software is gone Spike. I have recently ordered from Duchet that the previous posts mentioned and they were fine. They seem to have all the HPS games.
