The progress of wargaming in recent times

Bob, I realize this could be considered blasphemy by some, but I never got into the Panzer Blitz series. I tried PB, PL, and Arab-Israeli War, but they never grabbed me. I don't know about now, but back then, Tobruk was my armor standard.



I didn't think of it until reading your post, but Chess is more like Conflict of Heroes than Third Reich in the IGYG sense. Your alternative would definitely be interesting to play, especially on a larger board. Hmmm.

I have David's book in my cart. I see a novel series as well. Thanks for the recommendation.

I loved panzer blitz but I hated the brutal combat results table. In IGOUGO mode, whoever fired first usually won. Even a poor roll on the dice could disable the target and the units couldn't fire their next turn.
