I’ll never back DVG again after the fiasco with FC LEE! They changed the box art Original guy looked like Steve O They also turned woke With a female Player soldier??? No medic kit, I can see A Black Guy And some super high priced White Soldier 🤦🏽‍♂️ Also DVG has the worse customer service They don’t give a 🐀 tail about their customers And yes I backed this one Should have learned my lesson with the TERRIBLE Fantasy game

Still waiting patiently for my copy of the game to arrive, but I have to say that DVG knocked it out of the park with the artwork in this one. The game board looks incredible and everything else (card backs, counters, etc.) is very thematic. I also give kudos to DVG for listening to the community and scrapping the universal rulebook and using Ben for the revamped rulebook. Looks to be a major improvement in that department.

Those mission/objective names...*golf clap* Oh also the soldier names :)

Didnt back this one and looking at soldier cards, or lack thereof, Im relieved I didn't. Looks to be a money grab for expansion packs which if that's your thing It should be great. Cant wait to see reviews of this one...

I should have picked up Hornet instead of Phantom! I'll certainly be collecting most of this series. Now I just need to decide which to get next while I wait for Mustang Leader!

I remember when you did global war for white dog and you rolled 3 ones in a row, classic wayne, but your videos are always helpful

Solo?

Do the turns mean anything in terms of actual chronology?

Hi Wayne, When I get a game, I go to BGG Videos and see if you have a playthrough and then I watch it. You're the best. If I'm looking at a game, especially solitaire, I go to your pros and cons and see if its worth it. You've swayed me to buy and avoid. I did not on this case because David Kershaw + White Dog = winning and the BGG Comments were overwhelmingly positive, but in a lot of cases, if I'm on the fence, I go see what you say, but the playthroughs are always a must.

Looks like a fun game. Thanks for showing it.

Neat little game, thanks for showing.

Nice review Wayne

Very good game for what it sets out to do. The 1812 game has a similar feel. I could see Worthington doing more in this series on different themes if they get a good reception.

No need for a full review Wayne, think you covered it.

Thanks for this. It looks more engaging than 1812. I spotted a typo as you opened the rules. The name of Chiang Kai Shek was misspelled.

I’ve been having a lot of fun with this one (and its War of 1812 sister game). Sometimes I’m not in the mood for a super-in-depth war game, so this is perfect for that. It kind of reminds me of a stripped-down States of Siege style game.

Mine are enroute.

I picked up this one and the 1812 game too. They are as advertised- quick playing, high quality components and very portable. Both games are fun and are great when you want a quick taste of gaming. Definitely a gaming “snack” rather than a “meal”, but satisfying.

I look forward to your playthrough.

I'm going to have to buy three of those, thanks for the review.

A good overview of the rules and a clear demonstration of a first turn! I have the game now and will be playing it soon. I came searching for a video and found this one.

Wouldn't you reload torpedoes?

Totally agree on draw until you get purple keep what you get. With a minimum draw of 2 so you're never stuck with 1. Game should come with black cubes for artillery and grey cubes for German soldiers. Suppress u could change to a different color cube not used in the game. My other knock is the officer. In mobilization he's basically 1 option. The next 3 phases is basically morale and forget. Forcing a meeple to the same spot is silly. To me the officer should be able to go to any spot, because they're so important to any battlefield. Which would lead me to a morale penalty for the officer being in the hospital. I'm noticing that Kickstarter games have the same complaint, rule books and I don't disagree. Way too many are terrible. Why do game designer give it so little attention? It can really ruin a review and enjoyment of the game which gives a bad word of mouth. Taking a great game and giving it very little positive word of mouth. Clearly this game needs some house rules which is unfortunate, but won't stop me from getting this game. I'm buying because I love the flow and mechanics (even if some mechanics need improvement) of the game and completely agree with the positives you gave. Given the issues/improvements this needs a 2nd edition, err update, since the game isn't in the stores yet. ;)

Looks great, can't wait to get a copy. Too bad the game isn't avail in stores yet, since it stated it would be out in Apr-Jun of this year. Never saw what the snow cards being played. Are they worth it?

I actually love the style, very old-school and clear. Actually, it's quite aesthetical, much more so than many other wargames with acid colors.

great video as always.. at 2350.. when firing at artillery.. is there a modifier for firing over the harpeth?

Excellent walk through. I just purchased the game so love watching these videos to help with rules. Nothing worse than interpreting a rule wrong, and then realizing it later on. I'd like to have seen you go through the tally sheet since every game is a campaign. Other than that thanks for the video.

Where did you get the plane holders? those are great for the game...

DVG has the WORSE customer support! Especially this DUD fantasy game! I been writing to them to no avail to get my $$ back for their FC LEE KS! Dan’s son is a bratty lil B_tch This family own company , you get what you pay for I appreciate your channel and your attempt to tackle this crapola game 😆

Interesting simulation, thanks for the video. Far too rules heavy for me but glad people are making games on this subject.

Thanks, Wayne! I’m awaiting your review to see if I pull the trigger …

Where do you find all these solitaire games, none of my local game shops have em available.

Be interesting to see what you think of it. For all its flaws, I got the impression you quite liked Midway.

Great preview. Also looking forward to your test drive. Thanks Wayne!

It LOOKS great. Super thematic, with the immersive images and styling to the rulebook and player aids, which really pops and is great in a Pacific game. Great counters too. However, I'm going to hold off until I see a Playthrough. Midway Solitaire wasn't so good. Hopefully this is better.

It’s all about the Rules. Do they hold up. Want to buy it but . . .

Looking forward to your playthrough and your thoughts on this one, Wayne. Have my eye on it but haven't pulled the trigger yet.

Lol, I have definitely snapped a board back folding it before! 😮 Then my wife yelled at me because I was cussing! 🤬

Nice work Wayne. Sorry you're a Brewers fan, but still, nice work.

The original magazine game was TERRIBLE, I really hope they cleaned the mess up for the boxed release.

Looking forward to watching the play through

Good one Wayne

Wayne; did you play the campaign? A friend who playtested early said the terrain was so ugly that the Union couldn't get there. Maybe they changed the map or movement?

Thank you very much

This series, the Blind Swords Series, and the Shattered Union Series are the ACW series I follow. I'm an audiobook person, but I love the book add in to the vid. I'll have to see if there is an audiobook of it. The simplicity of this game series makes it so accessible to new players. I view that as a major strength of this series.
