bump

Have been watching this thread and Facebook. Are you guys still looking at a spring release (April)?

Wild Bill, I think it was bumped to this Summer. I could be wrong, but I thought I heard Coach say it. Maybe, he can confirm it, for us.

Summer,
We are using another Artist and went back to simply the rules.

Thanks for the confirmation, Coach.

Very well then

yeah, we don’t mind to wait as long as the final product is high quality  :-)

Catching up on this project myself, but am I correct in assuming this is the Second Edition of Global War?

If previous estimates were correct this should be coming out in about a month or so. Any ideas when the rules will be released? Looked around on the website but couldn’t find anything. Again, I am assuming a free pdf download on the rules as before.

This is the second edition of global war. I think this comes out at the end of summer, if I remember what Coach told me.

When the map comes out, I think the rules will come with it. :-)

Thanks John.

@coachofmany:

HBG Continues to work on the rules and map, both are coming along, slow but steady. Playtesting and corrections with attention to detail. We are shooting for a Fall release.

Thanks Coach. Better slow than never. Looking forward to the end product.

So this is the thread I saw stuff on… Must have gotten buried. Thanks for the update Wild Bill.

Read the rules. Generally happy with what I see. Greatly simplified in the right places (e.g. no more US dud torpedoes) while some optional complexity is added in others (terrain rules).

One thing I really do miss, however, is the inability to retreat for the defender?? Was that decision made simply for reasons of added playing time?
