Origins Awards Announced

 The winners of the annual Origins Awards have been announced: 

I have heard good things about Attack! and I enjoy playing A Game of Thrones, so I can recommend these two. For the official web site see: http://www.originsawards.com/

The 2004 International Gamers Award for Best General Strategy Game

 I would not normally cover these awards but this year a wargame won in the two-player category. To quote the press release: 

Memoir ’44 earned the award in the 2-player category. Using the system pioneered by designer Richard Borg in the 1999 release Battle Cry, Memoir ’44 recreates over a dozen battles connected with the D-Day invasions of World War II. Released by Days of Wonder, the game is filled with over one hundred detailed miniatures, and the board itself can be tailored to recreate the famous battlefields surrounding the Normandy landings. Easy-to-learn rules and fast-playing action are coupled with critical choices and numerous strategies, all resulting in a game that will be played and enjoyed over and over again. 

While Memoir’44 is not a detailed simulation its win shows that wargames, if well-designed as games, can reach a wide audience. For more information see: http:// www.internationalgamersawards.net 

Rodger B. MacGowan wins Lifetime Achievement Award

From a press release posted on Consimworld: 

Rodger B. MacGowan became the third recipient of the Ed Blomgren / Winston Hamilton Lifetime Achievement Award for contributions made to the conflict simulation gaming industry. Rodger was honoured for his many years of contribution to the hobby during the opening ceremonies of Consimworld Expo 2004. Past recipients of this award include Alan Emrich and Richard H. Berg. Consimworld wishes to thank Rodger for the positive influence and creative force he continues to have in shaping the hobby.

 Here is an overview of some of the milestone achievements by Rodger B. MacGowan.

If you have Quicktime 6.x installed then Rodger's acceptance speech can be seen at: http://homepage.mac.com/ jcbeckman/iMovieTheater8.html

GRD Games Purchased by Historical Military Services.

Excerpts from the press release follow: “Historical Military Services (HMS) is pleased to announce that it has purchased all of the assets of GRD Games. The Europa, Glory and The Great War series, The Europa Systems Magazine (TESM or TEM), the GRD Games web site (www.grdgames.biz) and the Europa Association List on Yahoo Groups, are under new ownership. The new GRD owners are Gar Olmsted, Cory Manka and Arthur Goodwin. As part of this purchase, HMS has specifically agreed to accept all obligations GRD Games had at the time of the purchase for all subscriptions to The Europa Systems Magazine (TESM or TEM); for all pre-orders for the games Wavell's War, Total War, and Return to Iraq; for all investments in the East Africa Terrain Company; and for the A Winter War Refit Kit previously promised to 1999 subscribers to TEM. For those who may not know, HMS has been working with GRD Games in various ways for several years. We have tried to help the company whenever we could and feel that our working relationship will help us with the transition. It has certainly given us a better idea of the work involved in publishing these games. Those who have pre-ordered Return to Iraq (RTI) will be contacted separately. RTI is not a core project for this company and it will not be produced by HMS. Credits or refunds for preorders will be available shortly. The game is a good one and we hope to find a publisher for it but we firmly believe that we need to focus on the core Europa, Glory, and The Great War game series and what brought gamers to the old GRD. We have put several other projects on hold (Eisenhower's War, Samurai Lightning, Bloody Eagles, Partizan!, etc.) while we concentrate on getting back on track with the magazine, Wavell's War, and Total War. These projects are still in the "production queue," but all work on them by HMS staff has been stopped until we have the magazine caught up, Wavell's War out, and all components of Total War at the printer. In most cases work on these games continues "out-ofhouse," however. For example Frank Watson and Robert Brown continue design work on Eisenhower's War and Partizan; and there are Bloody Eagles and Samurai Lightning "playtest commands" established in California and Australia, under Eric Pierce and Michael Tapner, respectively, that will continue work on their respective games. We are committed to moving forward with the Europa, Glory and The Great War series. Grand Europa will happen in our lifetime. The Europa Magazine is continuing and we hope to expand it in the future. A number of games that are out-of-print will again be available over the next year. There will be more about these projects in later announcements. Our immediate priority will be to move the company to Colorado and to reestablish the web site, telephone connections and set up the inventory. We should have the same toll free telephone # (1-800-236-7442) and web address (www.grdgames.biz) as the old GRD Games but we will let you know by separate announcement when our contact information is finalized. If you experience any difficulties in reaching us, please be patient. Our major goals for the next six months are to at a minimum publish three issues of TEM, get Wavell's War completed and shipped, and to move Total War along as close to completion as possible so as to release it no later than April 1, 2005. We want to ask for your continued patience and support. GRD customers have been the most loyal in the industry. We have all waited years for some of the games. Now, 'we' are on the other side, representing the company. As owners and publishers, we will do everything we can to reward your loyalty and will continue to improve the quality that drew you and drew us to the series. The games will be published.

Consimworld 

Consimworld (http:// www.consimworld.com), the discussion board for the board wargaming hobby, has moved to a charged-for subscription model, with some free access to company support/ discussion forums. There was considerable angst expressed online that this would kill Consimworld (CSW) and prove a set back for the hobby. These fears proved unfounded as over a 1000 people signed up! In a press release, John Kranz, who runs Consimworld, said: As a result of the overwhelming CSW Forum subscription activity which is already proving to be a great success in building a new and sustainable business model, we are incorporating the following enhancements to the subscription plan made possible thanks to our more than 1,000 new CSW Forum subscribers. In celebration of this milestone achievement and incredible outpouring of community support, the CSW Forum will be providing free and unlimited read access across the entire forum for all, covering literally hundreds of topics. In effect, guest access will remains in place. This action is being taken based on the high number of subscriptions already received, and to help new visitors experience first-hand the wealth of information provided at the CSW Forum as we continue to welcome new subscribers. This also helps ensure our partners that all individual game topics and support areas can be freely accessed by all 24/7, to complement their own dedicated marketing and support programs.

We are monitoring our forum software difficulties to better serve all our valued members and will provide updates when we are able.

Rejuvenation for The Boardgamer?

 The Boardgamer, a magazine dedicated to covering old Avalon Hill, looks like it will close as its editor, Bruce Monnin, is taking over as editor of Operations, MMP’s magazine supporting their games. Tom Cundiff is looking for support to start a successor to The Boardgamer: I’ve been asked a few times to consider founding and publishing a new magazine to replace the faithful old “Boardgamer” magazine. In this effort I’ve discussed on a couple of wargame websites the methodology of publication and costs involved. The goal of the magazine is to produce articles on unsupported wargames and long out of print wargames. Articles on games such as 1830 or Advanced Civilization will also be welcome, even articles on Sports games such as the old Football Strategy will also be just fine. The publication is not limited to only Avalon Hill games. Articles on games from other companies such as West End Games, Clash of Arms, etc. … are more than welcome, in fact the goal is to produce articles on games that people play and like that are older. My goal is to produce a publication every 3 months, and if it warrants every other month (one can hope anyway). It has been suggested that the magazine begin as an e-mail publication. That is to say begin with the least costly method first with an eventual goal of reaching enough subscribers that the publication can proceed to print media. This helps international subscribers as they don’t have to pay the exorbitant costs of international postage. And, as someone else pointed out, the lack of paper is ecofriendly. It will be set up so that subscribers will be able to print off the entire issue, or specific articles as they desire or need. Subscription costs have not been worked out as yet. Nor has remuneration for contributors. I'll have to do that soon. But, let's first determine the number of people who wish to subscribe. If anyone truly wants to subscribe to a publication such as this, please respond to the following e-mail address, which I’ve set up in order to manage this effort: tgunslinger@excite.com

CounterAttack 4.1

 Thought extinct after four issues, CounterAttack makes a sudden reappearance with an issued number 4.1, which contains a Korea 2005 expansion update for the Korea '95 game from issue 4. It contains 20 counters, six scenarios on three back printed cards, 12 pages of rules/ designer's notes, an OOB chart (on the back of the magazine cover), and a company flier. This expansion was the last project of Lt. Colonel Henry C. Meyer (ret), a long-time fixture in the Southern California wargame scene, who passed away recently. In excerpts from a posting on Consimworld, Jeffry Tibbetts of Just Plain Wargames and publisher of Counter- Attack, explains what is happening: “When there were 11 people working here full-time there was a broader horizon. Some time back, I bit the bullet and changed some things. There is no longer a separate CounterAttack Magazine and The Grenadier Magazine because there is simply no longer the staff power to create them. What there is, is this. The Wargames are CounterAttackbrand wargames. They have certain production values that set them above Just Plain Wargames. The magazine is The Grenadier, The Magazine for Wargamers. You who are the few CounterAttack Magazine subscribers - there are 586 of you - you will get one CounterAttack brand wargame and one The Grenadier Magazine for each issue remaining on your subscription. Because of the passage of years, that will cost Pacific Rim something like $24 per issue. You will have paid between $5 and $6 per issue. That is a good deal. KOREA 2005, as Issue 4.1, does not accrue nor subtract is regard to your subscription. It is just an update that we have provided to you as a part of your subscription. You may look forward to future CounterAttack Wargames and The Grenaidier Magazines.” For more information see: http://www.justplain.com

Microgame Design Group to close in November

The Microgame Design Group (MDG) is a Canadian DTP publishing operation run by Kerry Anderson. Under its label were published a number of notable games, some since taken up by other publishers. Kerry no longer has the spare time to run MDG: After the release of Byzantium Reborn, the Microgame Design Group will begin closing down. I, Kerry Anderson, co-founder of the MDG and the fellow responsible for production and sales, will be taking educational leave to pursue a Ph.D. in meteorology. As studies will require most of my attention, I will not have the time to run the MDG. The target date will be November, when I will shut down the web-site. The decision to take educational leave was made last Christmas. Since then I have started discontinuing titles as I run out of inventory (MacArthur's War, Mediterranean Fury, A Mere Matter of Marching, Smokejumpers, Trampling out the Vintage, and Vimy Ridge to name a few). Note that you can still get these games from several fine distributors. Also, I have given the designers a chance to find new homes for their various titles (such as Brian Train's deal with Fiery Dragon). It has been eight years since Brian Train, John Kula and I co-founded the MDG (then called the Microgame Co-op). In 1996 we began publishing with Land of the Free, MacArthur's War and Smokejumpers. The goal of the MDG has been to promote aspiring designers and I believe we have achieved that goal. Brian Train, Paul Rohrbaugh, Hjalmar Gerber and others are now recognized designers, Peter Schutze is running his own DTP company, and Scott Holmgren is beginning to do artwork for game companies. Personally, it has been a wonderful experience. I have had a chance to talk and meet with many people. The contacts and working relationships have also been great. Don't worry though, I won't be disappearing from the hobby itself. I will continue to participate actively on Consimworld and show up at the odd convention! I hope to see you there. 

Paper Wars CD

Finally, Omega Games have produced an innovative product. They are publishers of Paper Wars, a board wargame review magazine, and have put the contents of the first 26 issues in PDF form on a CD for both Windows and Macintosh computers. For more information and ordering details see: http://www.omegagames.com/ omega/do/military/paperwars/ AutoForward?forward=pwcdrom.pag edef 

NEW BOARD WARGAMES

Avalanche

 There are two new products from Avalanche in its Great War at Sea series. Cruiser Warfare is a game on German commerce raiding while Dreadnoughts is a scenario book with die-cut and mounted counters for a variety of unusual ships. See: http://www.avalanchepress.com 

Clash of Arms

Barons' War covers the two major battles of Simon de Montefort - Lewes and Evesham. Designed by Rob Markham, in only 12 pages of rules, the game system takes to new heights Rob’s command chit system, which neatly re-creates the limitations on leaders and troops, fog of war, and the chaos of the medieval battlefield. Rules are also included for individual unit morale, battle morale, cohesion, ranged fire, melee, and leadership, including special rules for Prince Edward and his Battle. Each battle has a historical scenario and "what if" scenario. See: http://www.clashofarms.com 

Cool Stuff Unlimited

Cool Stuff Unlimited is a new company whose business is to upgrade and republish minor classic games from the past. An initial print run of 100 copes of John Hills Verdun quickly sold out so another 100 have been printed. These reprints will not include a coversheet or be individually numbered, but the map has three town names corrected, along with one correction made to the CRT. For more information email: coolstuff@advantas.net 

Critical Hit

 There are three new games in the Advanced Tactical System, first seen in Critical Hit’s re-design of Tobruk. Darkest December: Battle of the Bulge 1944 is a stand-alone game based on an intensely researched and detailed historical map of the battlefield. Panther Line depicts squad actions during the Soviet '44 Summer Offensive. Stalingrad is an update of the older Combat: Stalingrad: its map is identical, but its units have been changed for the ATS system. See: http://www.criticalhit.com

Decision Games

Decision Games have gone into overdrive, producing three updates of classic games, two new card-based wargames and a new board wargame. Deluxe Trajan (published under the Excalibur imprint) is a quad game containing the four games in Joe Miranda’s Ancient Wars series originally published in Strategy & Tactics, Trajan, Roman Civil War, Caesar in Gallia and Germania. Although the maps and countersheets are exactly as before, there are eleven new scenarios and new counters. Deluxe USN is an update of an even earlier Strategy and Tactics game, from the early days of SPI. The game features two maps that cover the entire Pacific area of operations and has three counter sheets with 840 counters. While based on the original edition’s game system, additional rules and scenarios have been added. Finally the SPI classic, Empires of the Middle Ages has been re-released. The rules are as in the original, except that additional and variant rules have been added. The map has been redone in area style, while the cards and counters have been upgraded. The two new games are Lightning Midway and Lightning D-Day. Both have 110 Cards and just a single page of rules. Lightning D-Day is a five turn game where both players fight to control the 5 D-Day beaches (Utah, Omaha, Sword, Gold, & Juno). Cards represent forces or actions. In your turn you can either activate a force or conduct an attack. Only active forces may attack or defend. In attacks the highest combat value wins, but before the combat is resolved both players take turns playing action cards that can modify their combat values or the cards played by their opponent. Lightning Midway has a nearly identical game system. Players attempt to control four objectives, which correspond to enemy aircraft carriers. Differences are that action cards are divided into several types and destroyed forces can reenter player hands. The new board wargame is The Western Front: 1914-1918, the latest in the Der Weltkrieg series. It contains six scenarios depicting campaigns in France and Belgium during World War I, a grand scenario covering all four years of war and can be linked to the other games in the series, which cover other fronts. See: http://www.decisiongames.com/

Fantasy Flight Games

FFG have produced an expansion to The Game of Kings, called A Clash of Kings. It contains a new southern map which has a new House, plus new types of order markers and more detailed rules. See: http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/ 

Fiery Dragon

Autumn Mist is a Brian Train design on the Battle of the Bulge. It uses a division-level system on a small map with ten 2-day turns. Units are activated by randomly drawn corps and army HQs. Combat is resolved with a "Mission Matrix" which gives attacker and defender different "mission" choices. The intersection of choices gives the combat result in terms of modifiers for attacker and defender "casualty checks" and fixed advances/retreats. See: http://www.fierydragon.com/ 

GMT 

GMT have released two new games. Three Days of Gettysburg is the 3rd edition of the first game in the Great Battles of the American Civil War (GBACW) series. The rules and components include errata counters and rules corrections for previous editions. The GBACW series rules booklet is version 4.5, which indicates an update since Gringo! (version 4.4) – the previous release in the series. The game has six scenarios covering the main actions of the battle, including two (Herr’s Ridge & Little Round Top) which use only one map. The others use all three maps. The Sword of Rome is the latest in the series of card-driven board games, all loosely based on Mark Herman’s classic We the People. Designed by Wray Ferrell, cards (for events, army activation and support) and a pointto- point map enable up to four players to recreate the struggles among the Romans, Greeks, Etruscans, Samnites and Gauls to dominate Italy in the 4th and 3rd centuries BC. See: http://www.gmtgames.com/ 

Grenier Games

Grenier Games are a new company, which publishes games designed by Eric Grenier. The first two games are World War II in the West and World War II in the East. Between them they cover the entire Second World War, in Europe and in the Pacific respectively. They are mateable and designed to be simple and quick to play. See: http://www.greniergames.com . 

L2 Design Group

New from L2 Design Group, The Deluxe Bitter Woods Expansion Kit allows owners of Deluxe Bitter Woods to continue play of the game until January, 1945. Included in the kit is a new rule book, play aid cards and a counter sheet. See: http://www.l2designgroup.com 

Lost Battalion

Battleships in Action is a board wargame on World War II naval combat between battleships. Designer is S. Craig Taylor, Jr., who has an impressive list of past naval game designs (Wooden Ships and Iron Men, Ironclads, Flattop, CV, Midway Smithsonian And Guadalcanal Smithsonian). If you order just Battleships In Action, you pay for postage and get a web coupon for money off on a later purchase. If you order it with another Lost Battalion Games product it is free. See: http://www.lostbattalion.com/ 

MMP

MMP have released a massive new game. Three Battles of Manassas (Gamers/MMP) is the latest in the Civil War Brigade Series (CWBS). Covered are the Battles of Bull Run, the first (July, 1861) and second (August, 1862) and a hypothetical third battle that could have happened during the campaign in the East conducted by Lee and Meade late in 1863. The game uses version 3.0 of the Civil War Brigade Series rules. There are seventeen scenarios in all – six, seven and four respectively for the three battles. Almost all use two or three maps. See: http://www.multimanpublishing.com 

R.OC - Le Croisade albigeoise

I do not know the publisher for this game so have listed it under its title. R.OC is a French game on the Albigensian crusade. It has a mounted map, 127 cards and 256 round counters. See: http://boutique.cathares.org/ boutiqueJeuRocD.html

NEW DTP WARGAMES

 New from BSO, Richard Berg’s DTP label are two games. Louisiana Tigers is the first game in a new series, the Civil War Tactical System (CWTS), on company-level American Civil War combat, with a scale of 25 yards per hex. Focusing on a few regiments, it covers the opening skirmishes of the 1st Battle of Manassas. The heart of the game is in commanding companies, issuing orders actively (not reactively), and determining what your units actually do when given orders. Further games in the CWTS series will be published by MMP. Highlander covers two battles in the Jacobite Rebellion (Culloden and Prestonpans) with simple rules descended from past battle games from BSO. For details email Richard at: bergbrog@aol.com

Richard Dengel, the designer of Rebel Yell, has announced the release of I Fights Mit Sigel, on the Battle of New Market Virginia, May 15, 1864. This is a hand-constructed wargame limited to 150 signed and numbered copies. Its game system is based upon Rebel Yell, but has been given a complete face-lift. You can email Richard about the game at: dengelwood@verizon.net 

New from Khyber Pass Games are the first two games in its El Cheapo series. Che: Failed Revolution, Bolivia 1967 and Castro: The Cuban Revolution, 1958-59 are both simple area movement games with short rules, common to both games. Both are on offer discounted if purchase with other Khyber Pass Games. For details see: http://isigames.com/kpg/ 

The last game (see news item above) from the Microgame Design Group is Byzantium Reborn designed by newcomer R. Ben Madison. The game covers the Greek and Turkish War, 1920-1922 and is based on Brian Train's popular Arriba Espana game system. See: http:// www.microgamedesigngroup.ca/ 

New from Perry Moore is Operation Eisbar 1943 on the land, air and land battle for the island of Kos, in the Aegean from Sept -Oct 1943. See: http://pweb.jps.net/~perrya 

New from Red Sash Games is a revised edition of Charlies’ Year (on the Jacobite Rebellion in Scotland). Ian Weir, the designer, explains: The 2nd Ed of Charlie's Year is an entirely separate game with counters and map sheets of its own. I wanted a series of games using the same basic rule system, but the original rules evolved because the Jacobite Rebellion was not a good subject to measure "standard" 18th warfare against. The game we are working on now – Cockpit of Europe – deals with the War of the Austrian Succession in Flanders 1744-1748, and IS a model of mid-18th century warfare. The subject also involves the highest concentrations of forces in that war, so if the system works here, it should work with all the games (we hope). The theme of CoE also complements the Jacobite Rebellion theme in Charlie's Year, and we plan to have a linking scenario for the two games. However, a rewrite of the latter game – CY2 – is needed in order to properly match the systems. Some people who already have a copy of the original CY may not want to fork out for an entirely new game on the same subject (these people are obviously not Gamers-OCS fans). For them, I'll be cobbling together an upgrade kit out of pasteboard and tinsel. The kit won't include the new counters. If a person wants the new counters, they might as well buy the whole game, since the counters are a major portion of the cost. The kit will have a simple reference chart for converting some of the unit ratings to the new system (basically just converting a morale number into a morale letter). Also new is The Highland Quorum, covering the Earl of Mar's Rebellion in 1715. It is an official module for Charlie's Year, i.e.. you must have Charlie’s Year to be able to play it.
