I played the shit out of the Assault sytem w/ the add=ons. A good system, but can get intensive. I've been on the fence about getting any new or replacing old NATO/WP games. They had a huge appeal to me back in the day. When the WP broke up the appeal went to zero. Thanks to the Commie Russian fucks. IMO they fucked up a perfectly good category of wargaming. :ultra:

No shit, on land, at sea and in the air, NATO-WP/US-USSR stuff was fun. 

Now what the fuck do we get? 

FIFTH FLEET: ANTI-PIRACY PATROL! Can YOU enforce freedom of the seas?  Can YOU sink ships too small to lock on with Harpoons?  Now YOU have ALL the weapons available to the USN in combating teenaged Somalis...including .50 CALIBER DECK GUNS...WATER CANNONS...and ANTI-BOARDER SLIPPERY FOAM!

Meh, gimme Victory Games' NATO: The Next War In Europe any day.

I had that one.

The last one I played was Group of Soviet Forces Germany. No ZoC's made the game sorta weird and we gave up after 2 turns. Or to be more precise, my friend gave up after I killed a bunch of his German divisions. THEY WEREN'T WHITE ON BLACK.

Why'd you get rid of it? I have 2 copies.  Best playable invasion of WG out there, IMHO.

That's why I like VG's NATO:  Wessies are yellow on black. The 3rd Shock shits on the Steelers.

Hey, 11B, did you ever consider picking up SPI's The Next War again sometime?  Didn't you have a copy once upon a time?

Me poor in the mid 90's. Me had to eat and make house payment. Wargamers are suckers and pay high prices for old games.

Then you man up, suck the cock, and be done with it.

Since he's said "no", if you buy me a copy of the game and have it shipped to me, I'll consider playing a game against you.  I'll even give you choice of sides.  :)

Berkut was just being Berkut, dps.

Ah, another favorite. Played  a lot of it too. However Noble has no stock as does Troll and toad that lists at 249.00. BGG has one for 98.00 at a good rating but who knows.

I remember that. Oddly reminiscent of OMG, TEH BLAK SS KOUNTERS
