Darn, I was going to offer you mine as a trade, as I'll never have the space to play it. Ah well, congrats on a great buy. I'm sure you could spend the rest of your life playing it!
@@NangwayaNot a fan of lamps I actually threw it in the bin a couple of weeks ago. Its far too abstract and simplistic for me. It was the 1st edition with the cheap and ugly paper map though.
@@Nangwaya Yeah, look for it and check it out, I love it. Also, Totaler Krieg was the best WW2 Strategic game I had played unitl I played the Ultimate Edition of Axis Empires just released last year by Decision. The whole krieg system is just fantastic and unbelievably immersive.
Not a fan of this title. The ridiculously fiddly reinforcement pool system from WIF is a turn off for me. I would have sent you a copy for free as payment for those Der weltkrieg counters. I prefer 'Balance of Powers' at this scale much easier to play. Please let me know if you are looking for a WW1 title I do think I owe you for all those counters..
La Grande Guerre 14-18 :) Just kidding. No, you owe me nothing, trust me, I have received far more from enjoying all your video content, than I could ever repay in sending you counters. Happy gaming to you!
Oh and I agree about the maps; the new ones are way too busy.
the strange mountain tiles were the first thing I noticed 😂
What were they thinking?
They are bloody mountains.lol Go with the flow Jerry
They are brutal!
I like the Der Welkrieg maps they look nice especially at a distance 😉 and they are brilliant idea for modeling terrain.

It does not take forever
Had no idea you had it, darn, I could have saved a ton of money, but I am surprised that I got it with shipping from the U.S. at a reasonable price.
I have definite mixed feelings about those mountain graphics ...
Maybe something that grows on you?
@@Nangwaya, you never know ... until you do!
Oh and Cobra works as a trade. 👍
I'm probably also listing Home Before the Leaves Fall due to a future downsizing... ☹️
Well, looks like we will be seeing each other for sure, before you move!
The games are quite different , especially the scale. I think der weltkrieg is a better long-term lifestyle game vs this one.
That's true, did not think of the scale difference.
Agreed.
I've been trying to get this to the table for ages. Someday...
I was looking at the rules yesterday, and it has so much good things going for it, I really would like to give it a go.
I hope you do too!
I just love this game :)
I really like what I see in the rules!
Do you play any grand strategic/abstract wwi games like Paths of Glory, lamps are going out, etc?
I have not yet, but do have Imperial Tide.
The Lamps game looks very interesting, that would be one I would like to try.

@@Jezza_One Thanks for letting me know!
Yeah I need to get it on the table fatal alliances
And I need to get a copy of Storm of Steel :)
Yes cobra is excellent don’t give away
I would not know since nobody has done a video on it, hint, hint :)
@@Nangwaya it’s on my long list :)
@@clarkcommando1983 Wicked!
Check out Storm of Steel by Decision Games for an underrated WW1 Strategic Game. It's great!
Hi!
I should have picked it up when Decision had it down from $170.00 to $100.00!
