Too Much To Do

November 10th, 2008 by Troy Goodfellow · 1 Comment · AGEOD, HPS, Me, Paradox

I spent the last week writing an article that, it seems, won’t see the light of day for another few weeks. But it consumed a lot of my time, so I haven’t had much of a chance to look around. Until now.

And there is a lot to see.

AgeOD released World War One: La Grand Guerre. Ludovic Grousset was good enough to send along a review copy, so I’ll be getting to this very, very soon. If anyone else out there has a copy and wants to explore it in multiplayer, drop me a note.

HPS Simulations has released two new games, one from their Squad Battles series (Spanish Civil War) and another from their Modern Air Power line (War Over the MidEast). I’ll probably buy one of these, but not both. I hope to do a lot more wargaming in the next month or so, mostly because I’ve been slacking in that area and no one else out there is picking up the slack.

Paradox Studios has been continuing its weekly development diaries for both the upcoming Vae Victis expansion for EU:Rome and Hearts of Iron 3. So far I have read nothing about either of these that makes me especially excited.

Storm Eagles Studios has announced that Jutland is coming out – soon. This is one I am very much looking forward to. I liked Distant Guns, their Russo-Japanese War game. It’s not clear how different this will be, but the Kriegsmarine versus the Royal Navy…what’s not to love?

    Ooh, a Spanish Civil War game! And a Squad Battles one, at that!

    That’s definitely a war I’ve read a lot about, and I think that even in this super busy season, I’ll pick it up.

    It’s too bad there’s no good place for war game reviews.
