Are young people replacing geezers as we go to the great wargame in the sky? 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.

Ardennes Offensive was the best operational game I have ever played on the PC. 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.

Games with similar mechanics to Battle Academy and that are available at great prices are Panzer Corps Gold (original PzC plus 17 DLCs) and Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon Complete (original Armageddon plus 7 DLCs).
