France '14 Reviews - tquinn - 08-30-2010 Have there been any reviews of France '14 yet? When are they expected? Typically, there would be some by now. Maybe the critics are still having too much fun playing it to write about it. hehe RE: France '14 Reviews - Volcano Man - 08-31-2010 Hmm, no reviews that I have seen as of yet. Do they even review these kinds of games anymore? ;) RE: France '14 Reviews - tquinn - 09-01-2010 (08-31-2010, 04:39 AM)Volcano Man Wrote: Hmm, no reviews that I have seen as of yet.

After all, those German 420s pack quite a wallop - albeit, the rate of fire is rather slow. I don't think enough people appreciate the learning that is possible from playing this game. I certainly have a new and deeper understanding of WWI. Until this, Tuchman's "Guns of August" was my only connection to the first months of the Great War. RE: France '14 Reviews - Mr Grumpy - 09-01-2010 I agree, after i have played each HPS title i have also had a far greater understand of the campaign it depicts and F14 has been no different. RE: France '14 Reviews - Nitram Draw - 09-02-2010 I'd volunteer to write one but it would be really short. I mean how many ways can I say it's a great game! RE: France '14 Reviews - Tortue Agile - 09-02-2010 Talking about France 14 has anybody had a chance to open that book: Pyrrhic Victory: French Strategy and Operations in the Great War by Robert A. Doughty I already have The Breaking Point: Sedan and the Fall of France, 1940 that is a joy to read. |
