4. Academy – Conflict of Heroes -While WWII tactical is not my favorite period, I like how this plays out. It was a serendipitous trade, I was sent this as a wrong game in a trade. The person said we could call it even and to enjoy it, which I have.<\/p>\n
3. Worthington – Hold the Line – Equally good system to the Command and Colors just as evocative, just haven’t jumped on the others. Like Judd I’m happy with the counters.<\/p>\n2 MMP\/The Gamers – Yes this is my second to GMT since the 90s. I have to list a few games for this partnership.
\n– Warriors of God – It captures the chaos and difficulties of the era. Agree with Greg’s comment.
\n– Civil War Brigade Series – This is my favorite heavy Civil War battle series. If you really want to experience the frustrations of being a Civil War commander play one of these. Barren Victory (Chickamauga) and No Better Place to Die (Murfreesboro) are two favorites.
