I just have to jump in here. This GAME was never intended to be a simulation of WWII. Lets stop trying to get there.
I quote from my now quite dogeared West Front manual...Part 1 Introduction..."West Front is a tactical level game portraying some of the most significant and challenging battles fought on the Western Front in WWII." The other theatre games have something similar. I for one would be interested in your thoughts of what it was meant to be.
Quote:One problem I see is as the game moves forward it risks losing the people who have played it the longest.
An interesting point...I suspect you're right
Quote:Its a game and the word game implies that there is luck, wonder and even sometimes true amazement as to the results.
Not just in a game, but as in life, love and war. Was it not Napoleon, history's greatest soldier, who demanded one quality above all others in his subordinates...luck!!
LOL! Napoleon? :eek1:
Hmmm... I think he once said, "I'd rather have a lucky general than a good general." He also once said, "I do not know the quality of my generals because they have yet to be beaten. Only in defeat and retreat would their real skills be shown." :smoke:
Though I think we could have a real discussion of who was the greatest soldier? :rolleyes:
