Hey Cody! I am a MASSIVE fan of these games... both Western Front and Eastern Front. One of the strongest reasons, is that a lot of the messy math has been simplified... YES, I own SL/PB/PL and more complicated games, but this allows me to just use strategy and get down to it! My biggest frustration is that Columbia hasn't put out Combat Infantry Anzio, Combat Infantry Pacific, or Combat North Africa. Help me out here!!!!! Great review...thanks

[@TheDiscriminatingGamer]

Thank you!

[@calebhargus]

Another great review. The sound level was perfect.

[@TheDiscriminatingGamer]

Thank you, sir. I aim to please.

[@andrewwilliams2067]

I find the sound level is ok, until the music at the end, which is really loud.

[@robhamper6001]

Old review I know, but to update the lack of scenario concerns: Columbia games has released free, new scenarios on their website.

[@TheDiscriminatingGamer]

Very cool.

[@stanleyblazeraznik6047]

I ask because there is a new KS for the Eastern Front version of the game. I like replaying the historical battles .... thus my concern with the limited number of scenarios.

[@TheDiscriminatingGamer]

Yeah. I saw that that's up. Looks good.

[@BrianMarcus-nz7cs]

[@TheDiscriminatingGamer]

Ha! I used to think that's what it said when I was a kid!

[@tonycollins6946]

Great Review Cody.

[@TheDiscriminatingGamer]

Thanks!

[@stanleyblazeraznik6047]

Quoting the peanut farmer. OK. I'm more of a Ronald Reagan fan myself. Only six scenarios? One of the scenarios 5 bridges looks made up. That does not seem to offer a lot of replayability.

[@TheDiscriminatingGamer]

I guess it's a question of how much you plan to play it. For what it is I enjoyed it. I'm not somebody who plays games like this over and over, however. Break it out one in a while is more my style.

Danke!

[@viktorkm]

Hey Cody, have you tried Combat Commander series? (Combat Commander: Europe, Mediterranean)

[@TheDiscriminatingGamer]

No. I haven't had a chance to play those yet.

[@douglewis1273]

[@koomo801]

[@TheDiscriminatingGamer]
