I wish all games had such a good setup. It’s so easy to tell which troops go with what bc of the colored stripes. Love it! One of my favorites series for sure. Ty for the unboxing!
This one and Banish All Their Fears arrived this week. I was also surprised at the up-sizing of the counters compared to the Men of Iron tri-pack, although I'm not disappointed - no one is getting any younger and larger counters work well. Glad I ordered 2 games and they came in a larger box that had protective packaging.
Looks good. Like you I am very much of fan of the series. I often try to convince myself "hell, I just play it on Vassal" then see the unboxings and find my lust for the physical game overcomes my more base desire of saving money. I'll probably sign up for this one now. Shouldn't have watched the video. Also a shout out for Arquebus which is not often mentioned by the community but is an excellent addition to the series with Italian battles fought against and around walled cities and gardens. Plus you get the gunpowder units naturally. Give it a go.
Another GMT great game ! Did you noticed on last Update from GMT, "most requested new P500", that the top three are space related games ? Red Dust Rebellion, Away Team, Space Empires ?? I thought GMT customers where fully into "only" hardcore historical wargarmes ! Maybe something to talk about in a TH-cam video ?

On the CSW thread for this series, Ralph confirmed that the subject of the next MoI game will be Guelphs and Ghibellines!

It’s a great package with manageable battles, thanks for the look Gary.
Evesham is actually pronounced Eev-shm rather than 'Ever-shm'. Nice town, too.
A fine tribute to the late Norman Fell.
Kinda wishing I would have picked this up. thanks for the overview

Yes, really wish they'd reprint it.
Thank you for the unboxing!

beautiful package just received mine also😘
Is it LOOZ not Lewis?
Definitely Lewis. Only a fifteen minute train ride away from where I was born!
Stop complainin about postage and be thankful you don't have to pay postage to Europe, often almost the same price as the game.
I didn't complain about postage; I complained about packaging.
I just ordered it from Amazon UK. Shipping from the USA to UK was just £2.99.
