The Yom Kippur War boardgame

@cernel Thanks!

Listened to audiobook on Thucydides’ History of Peloponnesian War. Has anyone played board game titled Hellenes: Campaigns of the Peloponnesian War? Would make a great multiplayer game. A&A has WWI, Napoleon, Punic 270 BC, variants, but not Peloponnesian Wars (Athens vs Sparta). Would be interested in working together with anyone willing to develop a Greek city state variant for this website.

Good night! :-o
Sorry man.

@toblerone77:

John I’m guessing you may have it already, but Battle Cry 150th Anniversary edition is readily available and improves upon the previous edition with almost twice the battle scenarios.

Anyways good luck with your search.

Tolerone77, I have two copies of that one and the original, and it is a great game, but I I wanted one that plays like Napoleon in Europe and this is as close as gets, till HBG produces their new Civil War game.

Thanks for mentioning it and thanks for wishing me luck. :-)

No problem John. If I find it I’ll send you a link if I find it anywhere.

Thanks buddy! :-)

@Noll:

Do you know if there’s any good ww2 tactical game with turns instead of real time?

I tried heart of iron 3 (and that game doesn’t have turns either) but I find it too deep in rules to like it. (I feel like I need to read a 200pages manual to be able to play it)

I wouldn’t give up on the entire series, try Hearts of Iron 2 or Hearts of Iron Darkest Hour edition, both are much simpler and intuitive. You can download it from STEAM but make sure you get the game that says Darkest Hour: A Hearts of Iron game and not Darkest Hour Europe 44-45, thats and FPS not an RTS.

Darkest Hour is alot of fun with a much better map then the other HOI games. Also its the only one with a 1914 start date, which is alot of fun.

Has anyone heard of this game? Has anyone played it?

It sounds like it would play out kinda like a Total War game, but im not sure.

Gears is pretty cool.  I just don’t like how in MP you can shoot up an enemy with like 50 rounds and for some reason they will still be alive.  Its still a fun game to play.

If you want a good Vietnam board game, try out Vietnam 1965-1975.

It is a hex based game, using counters for playing pieces. The game is from the 80’s and you’ll find it on Ebay.

For sure, no game depicts the vietnam war better - with hidden units, ho chi minh infiltration routes.

Beware though, that the Grand Campaign 65-75 takes hundreds and hundreds of hours to play. However, there exist about a dozen smaller scenarios (like the Tet offensive amongst others).
