GMT has done such a great job developing rule books that genuinely care about teaching the player the game in a way that they're getting the best possible experience out of it. 80's wargames? Not so much. Some came with rules so comically incoherent, I was convinced they just didn't like the way I looked. GMT for the win.
Thinking about emailing GMT regarding the availability of a replacement box. The original box does express the theme with the sad man peering through the hole in The Wall, but the new box art just seems to better exude the idea of a conflict.
I realize I’m dumb as that is not Stalin but Lech Wałęsa
You caught that before too many from the peanut gallery started pelting you! 😀
Have had the original on my shelf for years, but have not played it in quite awhile. If you're ever up for a game, Grant, I'd enjoy playing it again.
I'm sure you'll enjoy it. I've played it 78 times and I'm still drawn into each and every game.
It is not Stalin on the front, it is Lech Walesa
This is such a nice change from Twilight Struggle. It's great for when I'm in the mood for the system but not the crazy tension of Twilight Struggle.
Great video as always- I can't wait to see your review of this one. It looked interesting and I'm really keen to see what you think of it.
Never heard of this game before! Thanks for the presentation, Grant! Looking forward for your review!

I really do not understand why a white frame for the blue counters (with the risk that it will not be perfectly aligned after the cut)
Haha the “My First Banana” kid looks like he’s holding a giant peeled zucchini.
It's actually a cucumber. This was a cover of German satirical magazine "Titanic", making fun of East Germans at that time.
Brian Sweet, SamielDE Plus, it’s actually a girl named Gaby. ;)
Why water on the table?😳
It’s an excellent game!
FIRST!
