Well done -and many thanks for your always insightful perspectives. You've made me realize how much I miss playing this great game that hits all the sweet spots I look for. I've been on a Russian Besieged binge for the last several months and too many of my old loves have become victim to the charms of my current amour. Time to return to the path of the straight and narrow and remedy that. Many thanks for the link to the new Weather Chart; eager to road-test it.
One thing I didn't like was that on the western front the unit density got very high and there was a lot of fiddling with counters. I didn't like the air system either, which precluded, practically, email games.
Well the one counter per hex makes the counter density much easier than in some other games. I agree that the interactive systems do not lend themselves to email play. Vassal on the other hand works very well.
They're on Consimworld. talk.consimworld.com/WebX/.1dd4495a/5972 The playaid on the GMT website still has the original playaid weather. Any problem send me your email and I'll send you the jpeg that I cropped out of the pdf of the playaid. You need the 2022 version.

I absolutely love unconditional surrender

Tanks a lot. I got it.
I've always wondered why not just use the historical weather?
@@67icebowl I suppose it stops perfect planning.
