    Did you know Mortal Kombat was based on an old scandanavian ballad? A Finnish hymn.

    I bought this a while back but it’s been on the shelf since. As always you inspire (you’ve cost me lots of money the last year 😂) so it’s gonna get up on the table today. Thanks for your enthusiasm and straight to the point reviews. Keep it up!!

    I really like this one. So much so, I stopped playing after 3 games so I didn't overdo it and get fed up with it. Also the first ever game I was able to punch, learn and play all on the same day.

    Another excellent solitaire game?!?! My groaning shelves can’t take it! I see the box cover notes that this game is “Solitaire Area Movement Series: Volume 1”. I’ll definitely be keeping an eye out for subsequent volumes.

    The Soviet's don't lose a die when a Stuka attacks. You roll one die and reduce the Soviet defense by that amount. It could be anything from 1-6.

    I'm a big fan of your board game material, Dr. Carlson, but I'm mainly here to commend you for your Cody Carlson PHD channel, since I can't comment there. I've listened to all your WWII lectures to date (for fun) and really appreciate your treatment of that very broad topic and that you dive into all the political and social contexts along with the military strategy and engagements. I hope your students can recognize the quality they have in you as a lecturer. A sub o' both your channels!

      Thank you very much, sir. I don't have the comments enabled for my lectures because I want to use those videos for classes in the future, and when you discuss anything about that topic, or Nazi Germany, you get a lot of kooks spouting conspiracy theory and dangerous ideologies. I really appreciate your comments. It means a lot to me.

    Reviewing solitaire games is good because it's hard to find players. So as far as I am concerned, the solitaire game reviews the better.

    A lot of this game reminds me of the AH game Turning Point Stalingrad . Which is a two player game. But I play solitaire. I d o love TPS (Don Greenwood) but it can be frustrating with the exhaustion rules. If you make bad attacks you can be several turns with out being able to do anything for up to 4 turns. I am not complaining about the rules. Just when you are exhausted you are more venerable, The rules make you think. How where and how far do you push. It is not a clear cut go after objective. A lot of strategy. More so for the Germans. Fun game. Have you played this as I would curious about the differences? BTW ant thoughts on Undaunted Battle of Britain?
