I think that may be the central problem. Those of us weaned on the usual AH and SPI boardgames, who have long attention spans and don’t require instant gratification, are probably a dying breed. What’s the realistic target market for a revamped War in the Pacific? I have no idea, but the economics are probably not there for Matrix to get something started or they’d have done it.

Roger Keating is a great guy and I got to meet him in person (with his son) when in Michigan. The AI was also as good as I have seen in any game. He tromped me when I actually played him in Ardennes Offensive (no surprise there).

I reviewed wargames back then for Gaming Nexus and that was a great time for PC Wargaming. John Tiller was another great guy and I traded many emails with him over several years.

I haven’t seen much in current games that equates- but I am very encouraged by Second Front as I was an ASL player ages ago.
