SP and I reconvened for another game of Undaunted Normandy last night. It was scenario 12, the last of the originals, so we have worked our way through the box. The Germans snuck it. But when asking SP what he would have done differently I realised that I'd not seen the Allied control marker on the zone I took to win, and that I had declared a victory prematurely. Red faces all round!
Never mind, the game was secondary to the chat anyway.
The game itself continues to shine. As an indication of how much I am enjoying it, I have a few ideas for house rules...
Aaron …. The game that keeps on giving :-) From memory is SP newly introduced to wargaming? If so that game has been worth its weight in gold.
ReplyDeleteYes, that's right Norm - though I guess we have been playing on and off for about three years now, so we're developing a bit of history! You're quite correct, the game has been excellent value in all respects.
DeleteThat's the number one thing I enjoy most about gaming, the socializing. Glad you had fun, and your not the first to have that happen to you (whistling softly in the background).

Yes, indeed. I spent so much time playing solo in Japan that it's quite a treat to now be able to combine a good game with good company and a drop of something nice to drink.
