Dance of War unbox

Check out this wargame on the First Battle of El Alamein from Swedish publisher 3 Crown Games.
It's a chit pull system, single map game with an estimated playtime of 8-10 hours (despite what I might have said in the video!)

I LOVE those counters! No nibs, no ash rubbing off on me, no corner cutting.

[@PushingCardboard]

I agree, they're perfect right out of the sprue.

This is the same system as A Victory Lost/Awaits/Denies and Traces of War/Traces of Hubris. Revolution published a few of this series in the US, as well.

I have Hubris but haven't gotten it played yet, and recently got a used copy of A Victory Lost, same thing. So this is my intro to the system. Do you know which game is the OG? I'm guessing one of the Victory ones as they were all designed by Tetsuya Nakamura (actually, I think the Vuca ones are as well). So maybe 3 Crowns is just copying the system?
I've been playing this one. I'm three turns in a really liking the random events and chit pull. Makes for a great solo game.

@@PushingCardboard Yeah they’re really good solo. Recently did Polar Storm on my channel. I’m not sure which designer did the first game, but I do really like how 3CG layers in some extra chrome on all their games to really take the system to the next level, IMO.
