It depends on what “work” means – in other words, on whether players would consider a Kursk scenario appealing. Conceptually, Kursk would be similar to A&A D-Day (minus the water) in the sense that the battle was fundamentally a frontal assault on a heavily-defended static position, and similar to A&A Battle of the Bulge in the sense that it would involve ground forces driving into enemy lines, but different from both games in the sense that from the German point of view Kursk was a pincer movement aimed at pinching off a salient, and that from the Russian point of view it was a two-stage offensive-defensive battle. Personally I think it has good potential to make an interesting game, if it’s designed properly.
HBG's Amerika Game ON KICKSTARTER NOW - FUNDED!
-
This game is all I want for Christmas!!! We’re gonna get it done.
-
Really hoping it does aswell.
Need to get the word out to more people.
10k in 2 weeks is gonna be a close call. -
C’mon guys, Amerika is almost funded!!! With six days left, there is only a little over three grand standing between us and new piece bliss! If a stupid card-based rape game called “Tenticle Bento” can get $30,000 for funding (it’s true, look it up) then there’s no way in hell we are gonna be denied!
Jump on the team and come on in for the big win and god bless Amerika!
-
Raised my pledge $20.00. Who’s with me?
-
tempting to raise to get some more pieces…
-
I’m with you brother!!!
Just crept over 22k. Less then
3 large to go! -
Just upped my pledge too. Really want to see this thing go.
-
It’s funded
:-DStill can shoot for some stretch goals.
-
So glad to see that it got funded. There was a large donation by a backer that funded in honor of his father that pushed them over the top, pretty awesome. This game will be so much fun to play and using the pieces with global will be a whole new adventure.
Congrats HBG!
-
Thank you everyone!
HBG’s first, but not last Boxed game! -
Great show HBG :-D
Thanks to Kenneth ( and Edwin G. ) Watkins to make sure that Amerika is funded. Thumbs up
Now, lets get some more stretch goals realized. :wink:

Nice work Coach!

Hey guys,
I just checked on Kickstarter and noticed we passed $30,000. That means we will get those cool Amerika dice. I was really looking forward to those.It would be really cool if we got to the $35 K goal for the Expanded Units sets, but I am very happy we have what we do.
-
A BIG THANKS to you ALL. I know most of you are reading my updates each night. But I wouldn’t pass up saying thank you again. It’s because of YOU that HBG was even able to do this. I too hope we hit the $35K mark and get those expansion pieces… I want them too! Sorry we have been a bit quiet here but as you can all imagine, this crazy Kickstarter thing has Doug and I up to our eyeballs! I’ve been updating the KS site and answering questions while Doug brings in more Backers and fills all the orders.
Great Job Everyone!

Guys,
––Well I made sure to add my “backing” to the Kickstarter-Amerika game from HBG.
----As I’m a military historian and NOT a sci-fi fan, this game isn’t exactly “my cup of tea”. But I was happy to help out mainly because I know this will help out HBG in many ways. And a financially healthy HBG can only mean more FUN for ALL of us gamers in the future.
----Secondly,…if we can’t get enough players for a Global-40 or 39 game,…we can now play Amerika.Thanks agian to Doug and all of his staff at HBG for enabling our gaming addictions. :-D
-
Well, it’s over, and by God, we did it big. LOTS of bonus pieces. Wow, can’t wait.
Thanks to anyone, everyone, whom helped with this.
-
$47,936
pledged of $27,250 goal -
Yeah, isn’t that just GREAT!! Big props to Mike and Doug for adding the last 3 new sculpts to the 47,5 goal. They have been really generous with the stretch goals in these last few days.
Now I almost can’t wait until May when we get to see the finished product.
-
Kudos to HBG !
-
I am happy for you all. I wanted to give 80$, but did not know how the shipping and taxes would have worked out for me here in England.
I know I will get a worse deal, but I think I am probably going to buy one when it goes on sale, despite not being that bothered at first.
You lot spread enthusiasm and I am sorry I missed out.
