The other theatre games have something similar. I for one would be interested in your thoughts of what it was meant to be.
Indeed it does say that. But that statement does not state anywhere that it is a historical simulation.
It potrays action on the western front as the movie Midway portrayed Midway, as Tora, Tora, Tora portrayed Pearl Harbor, as The Battle of the Bulge (the 1965 one with Henry Fonda) potrayed the battle of the Bulge.
Clearly to me it claims nothing about being historically accurate. It just portays those events.
And while it does not have the word historical in the introduction it does have the word game. :smoke:
Thanx!
