Danube Front'85

[von Nev]

As somebody that has primarily played PzC games, this MC title is really an outstanding game and stands up well against any title of either timeframe. I really, really enjoyed playtesting this one especially some of the nain-bitting scenarios such as the Russian airborne drop by Wurzburg which required a desperate Russian attack to link up with them in time before the German panzer division crushed them.

We (well, Glenn ) worked really hard on changing the helo rules to avoid some of the gamey play. You will have to experience it yourself, but the use of the helo's will be more realistic as a result. For starters, it will be VERY painful for helo's to fly adjacent to units and attack or to end the turn next to enemy units. Their defense rating was lowered BUT their attacked ratings were increased (some dramatically). This way, there will be a lot of "shooting and scooting" using the helo's longer attack range and popping up to fire off some ATGM's and then back behind the lines for those attack helos. This really how it should be IMHO.

The tac-nukes are a great addition too. In one test I had the WP fire off some 6 tac-nukes in a single turn. I honestly felt bad for bit . . .

I do highly recommend the title.
