There's a new HPS game: Future Force - Wolfgang - 07-02-2011

I was just browsing the HPS site and noticed they have a new game up there. Looks interesting. If anyone happens to pick it up let me know - I may give it a try too.

Got to say...I was disappointed with this release. For me it looks like a sleeper (not in a "better than anyone expected" sort of way...but in a "I am bored out of my mind" sort of way). It may be the best at what it does, and I am sure there are people that are dying for this sort of game...just not me. Waiting for the AARs to see if I am missing something.

Hey Gabeeg hows it goin!
It definitely looks like a different kind of game experience. It seems kinda dry but that also kind of intrigues me. The financial aspect of it is an unusual dimension to see in a wargame.
U up for any squad battles??

More like an economics game than a wargame.

"The sinews of war are money" or so I hear.

I think that I'll pass on this one. It just doesn't do anything for me...

I need hexes -- I want to maneuver in the field damnit! I can't even get into area movement games, and it looks like this one is so abstract that it doesn't have a map.

Why, you want to kick my butt again in MW? :) I am loaded down right now but if you can wait a till next week I will be up for a MW or 1776 scenario...PM or email me if your game (pun intended).
