World War II in Europe turn by turn

@sjelso
I looked that game up on HBG’s site and I noticed something that I had ignored on something else I bought - it may be what you need. In the description of the game, in the first paragraph, is a critical sentence: “Game rules and setup charts will be provided by a download link after purchase.”

Assuming you created an HBG account before you bought the game, your account on HBG has a link to download the game rules on your account page. Login to your account and go to the order you placed to get the game. Take a look on the order form. The line for your game should include a line that says: “Spanish Civil War Game Click Here to Download”. If you click on the “Click Here to Download” you will get one of two response: either a download of the pdf with the game rules, etc… or notice that says: “Download Expired”. If you get download expired, open a trouble ticket and ask for a new download link. You will have to wait for Doug, et al., to come back from the holidays, but they are attentive and helped me out (gave me another copy of my download) when I complained about my problem.

I hope the above helps you get your rules.

He posted in the correct forum: other games. What exactly is the issue here?

Sorry to reply to such an old topic. I just came across this game the other day for the first time, and wondered if it popped up on the forums anywhere. This is the lone hit haha.

Has anyone played this? I’m very intrigued by it. It looks like the gaming mechanics work really similarly to the Battle Cry Civil War game, which I have and enjoy playing too. I love playing Battle Cry when we want to get a game fix in. Individual battles only take about 45 minutes I think, but you can play whole campaigns if you still want a longer fix too.

Would love to hear if anyone has anything to say about this, and whether it’s worth the buy. I see there’s at least expansions for a French army and one for tanks. Maybe others?

Just in case anyone needs parts, or would like to build a game for way less than the $170-200 complete games are going for. This does raise a question. Why would anyone replace the pieces with Battue pieces to be left with an all cavalry variant?

Using Eagle Games ‘Fast Play’ rules, it could be played, but there is no battle board.  In my opinion, the battle board makes this game fun.

I don’t see how you could play it online with the battle board, however, as every movement needs to be done separately.

So, dose anyone out there play this or any other similar tabletop games?

For those that dont know, its a game based on batallion level combat during world war 2. There are several different nations you can play as, such as the US, Britian and her empire, Germany Italy and the Soviet Union, along with the minor nations of Hungary, Finland and Roumania.

I started playing as the soviets during their mid-war series, but I’ve never really been more of a casual player, I like collecting and painting the models more then playing sometimes. I’ve been thinking about branching out into other armies like the Italians and Hungarians. Next month their early-war series will be released allowing people to play as France, and i’ve thought about playing as them too.

Anyone else play

p.s intresting how their release seems to mirror that of A&A?  :-D

I first played that at Newgrounds (www.newgrounds.com), which has quite a few good games.

Mastermind, is one.
Alien Hominid (which was ported to a bunch of consoles - and the group that made it has a great follow up game, Castle Crashers)

check it out.

I love the date on this posting.
