The Dragon: Chinese Special Forces
By Terence Co
Since soon after its founding on 1 August 1927,
during the Nanchang uprising, the People’s Liberation
Army (PLA) has conducted stealthy operations, even
though it originated as a conventional military force
organized from rebelling Kuomintang (KMT) National
Revolutionary Army (NRA) units. From 1928 to 1945
the PLA had to adopt guerrilla strategies and tactics
in order to survive attacks from the KMT as well as
regional warlords and the Japanese.
The “people’s war” concept pioneered by the
PLA during that time emphasized a multi-stage
insurgency strategy. Tactics included blending
in with the populace, propaganda, infiltration,
the creation of base areas behind enemy lines,
sabotage, and attacking enemy rear-area military
and economic targets. All those are the hallmarks
of what are considered “special operations” by
Western militaries. Even so, prior to 1949 the PLA
had few units that could be considered special
operations forces (SOF) by those same Western
militaries. Rather, a multitude of regular and irregular
units were trained to perform those missions.

Dear Fellow Wargamers:
Welcome to our 26th issue of the Dispatch. This issue we are featuring a great subscription and game offer. For
every year of game edition subscription you purchase, you get a $20 off DG games certificate. So if you just want a
subscription to Strategy & Tactics, World at War, or Modern War, you could do that and pick up a folio game or two of
the new Quick Play mini-games. Or you could get five or more years spread between the three magazines and take
$100 off any game purchase (new releases excluded: Atlantic Wall & D-Day at Tarawa).
In addition, we are featuring our two DG boxed game releases: Atlantic Wall and D-Day at Tarawa. We are extending
pledge/pre-order pricing of 25% off for orders placed through 16 May 14.
In the past six months, we released to distribution four new mini-games from Chris Perello with his streamlined Quick
Play Musket & Saber rules that can also be used to play his earlier Musket & Saber designs. The four new battles are:
Saalfeld, Molina del Rey, Salem Church and Chantilly. We also released four folio games for the Fire & Movement
series: Vimy Ridge and Meuse-Argonne for the WWI series, Battle of the Scheldt for the WWII series, and a new
solitaire F&M game: Iwo for the WWII series. We also released SPW’s Grand Campaign, the final volume that links
all of Dave Schroeder’s Der Weltkrieg Series, along with new printings of the entire series.
This issue of the Dispatch has many other great offers. Desert Fox is offering virtually all games at 20-50% off. Check
out the listings - there are many brand new titles that can be had at these great discounts! Also there are many titles
that have gone out of print so grab them up quickly as most have only one or two copies in stock.
On the following pages you’ll see the entire pledge list. Of course, we have a slew of pledge game proposals to review
and pre-order. You can see the games we already have moving forward for 2015 (Wellington’s Victory, Alamo to
Appomattox, and D-Day at Peleliu). Your pledges determine what we’re working on for 2016 and beyond.
It’s time to take advantage of all the bargains available in this Dispatch!
Thanks again for your support,
Doc

Decision Pledge program
Pledge Program Overview
The Decision Games Pledge Program is an online advance
order system in which gamers may “pledge” their support
for future games thereby directing our efforts to the games
customers have the most interest in seeing published. Pledges
are a commitment to purchase a game when published and
payment information is required in order to make pledges however payment will not be collected until a game starts collating
in our warehouse.
As pledge support builds, we’ll add more detailed descriptions, sample artwork, and rules drafts to the web site. Pledge
orders will receive up to a 25% discount from the final retail
price. We will provide estimated pricing based on the latest
information we have about the game components and print
pricing however the final price is subject to change (largely
due to the variable costs of paper and shipping).
When a project goes to our printers, we send out an
e-mail indicating a project is close to completion. This is to
confirm payment methods and credit numbers and expirations
dates in case customers need to make last minute adjustments. It is critical to the pledge program that customers
respond immediately to this notification (our “final boarding”
call). Credit cards are not charged and checks not deposited
until a project is in our warehouse being collated and prepared
for shipping.
The Decision Games Pledge Program has published many
games. For your convenience, we are listing the projects
already in the works for the next year in the first section of
the pledge list. Beyond the next year, there is no specific
timeframe for publication as each game varies significantly in
size and complexity, and the availability of outside part-time
developers to work on some titles means a longer timeframe.
We generally expect to publish two to four games each year
with the priority given to the games with the most pledges.
We may publish a game from further down the rankings when
we need a good fit to optimize component gang-printing.
The pledge games are divided into the same eras we use
for Strategy & Tactics and World at War games. Many of the
proposed games have longer descriptions or a complete web
page with sample artwork. Games that earn sufficient support
work their way up the rankings until they are in the top 10 and
begin the process of design, development, artwork, and printing. Game proposals that are not making sufficient progress
are dropped to make way for new game proposals.
To pledge your support, check your list, make changes
or updates to your list or customer information, and use our
new online system to select the game proposals you wish to
pledge in the pledge area of the Decision Games Shop.
PLEDGE PROGRAM UPDATE
(01 Mar 14)
There are a lot of games and projects releasing in the next
two years and all of these projects are at the top of the
pledge list to make them easy to find. Pledging will end once
individual games are ready to start shipping so make sure you
go to the DG Shop and set up your new pledge account and
enter your updated list.
Releases in 2014
We are releasing two boxed games in 2014: Atlantic Wall
and D-Day at Tarawa. Atlantic Wall is the largest game
we have published since WITP with 7 maps and 16 counter
sheets. We have been working diligently on the testing and
proofing of this game for over two years and are very excited
to see it “hitting the beach” this June. The GOSS system rules
have been thoroughly updated and can be used with the previously published games in the series: Wacht am Rhein and
Hurtgen: Hell’s Forest. D-Day at Tarawa is the sequel to
the popular D-Day at Omaha Beach by John Butterfield and
uses similar game mechanics.
2015 & beyond
The games currently in development and play testing for
publication in 2015 are D-Day at Peleliu, Alamo to Ap-
10
pomattox and Wellington’s Victory. D-Day at Peleliu
is the third in the D-Day series and looks at another hard
fought invasion. Alamo to Appomattox covers the American
Civil War with Krieg-style strategy card system and includes
introductory scenarios for the War of Texas Independence and
the Mexican-American War as well as a card based scenario
Conflict & Compromise of the politics leading up to the ACW.
Additional scenarios allow for the ACW to start in 1853, 1857,
or 1865. Wellington’s Victory is an update of the classic SPI
monster game of Waterloo.
Folio & Mini Group 2014-2015. We are working on another
large group of folios and mini-games for release in Q4 2014
and into 2015. We’ll have an overview of them in Dispatch
#27 in the Fall. So far, we are very pleased with the reaction
to the new mini-games and the Quick Play Musket & Saber
rules as well as the new solitaire F&M system game on Iwo
Jima.
Games to be published in
the next 12 months
1. Atlantic Wall (SPI). The new Wacht am Rhein (GOSS)
system will be applied to the update of this game. The original
game is also being expanded to include Operations Cobra and
Goodwind as well as several smaller scenarios (some use only
one map and are ideal for those who want a smaller, shorter
game or a place to get introduced to the system). Seven maps,
16 counter sheets. Joe Youst. Est. Retail: $240 (Est. Pledge
$180).
2. D-Day at Tarawa. Based on John Butterfield’s CSR
Award-winning D-Day at Omaha Beach system, this solitaire
game presents the critical days of fighting at platoon and
company scale.  You command the invading American forces
against the dug-in Japanese defenders, controlled by the
game system. Tarawa covers the landings on Betio Island in
November 1943, and the operations of the US 2nd Marine and
27th Infantry divisions to clear the Island—the first heavily
contested landing of the Pacific War.  The battle for this tiny
island raged for four days and when it was finally over, less
than 200 of the 5,000 Japanese defenders remained alive.
One map, two counter sheets, and 55 cards. John Butterfield.
Est. Retail $60 (Est. Pledge $45).
3. D-Day at Peleliu. Peleliu focuses on the landings by
the US 1st Marine Division in September 1944, and their bitter
two-day struggle to capture the airfield on the southern end
of the island.  A longer campaign scenario allows the player
to extend the action to the rugged terrain of “Bloody Nose
Ridge.”  Opposed by the reinforced Japanese 14th Infantry
Division, the battle resulted in the highest US casualty rate
of any in the Pacific war. Like D-Day at Omaha Beach, both
new games feature landing hazards, variable enemy positions
and fields of fire encoded into the game maps, US weapon
types vs Japanese defensive preparations, and a random
event-driven narrative.  Plus new features unique to the
Pacific Theater such as US naval and aerial bombardment,
flame throwers, off-shore reefs and defensive positions,
Japanese tank attacks, tunnel network movement and Banzai
charges.  One map, two counter sheets, and 55 cards. John
Butterfield. Est. Retail $60 (Est. Pledge $45).
4. Alamo to Appomattox. A2A is a grand strategy
game of the American Civil War in the style of Krieg! Maps of
the Eastern and Western Theaters include terrain, strategic
objectives, roads/rail, naval zones, navigable and nonnavigable rivers, cities and locales, supply centers and other
features affecting the game. Counters represent the corps
and armies of the war. Cards provide the strategic-politicaleconomic direction for each side. Strategies are many and
varied but the ultimate goal is to demoralize the opposing
faction’s population through military, economic and political
victories while sustaining your own population’s will to
continue the fight. The players each choose a Strategy Card
Dispatch #26 | d e c i s i o n
and an Addendum Card before each new season and may opt
to play an additional card as a diplomatic response to certain
events. These cards lead to new military units, leaders, and
replacement steps and result in socio-economic and political
events. The events include the declaration of Emancipation,
the elections of 1862 and 1864, and the possible intervention
by European nations. Events are often double-edged swords,
sometimes providing a military advantage while negatively
affecting the popular will to fight. In addition, both sides may
attempt to develop and manufacture new technologies, both
historical and speculative, such as ironclads, submarines,
torpedoes, observation balloons, repeating rifles and Gatling
guns. Both sides can introduce espionage and even sabotage,
which can have many unexpected consequences, including
assassination. Scenarios are included for each year as well as
the entire ACW.
Beyond the ACW proper, there are two introductory scenarios: Alamo, a mini-game of the War for Texas and Manifest
Destiny, a Mexican-American War mini-game. These short
campaigns will give new players an excellent place to start
playing and veteran players will have two scenarios that
can be finished in an evening. In addition there is Crisis &
Compromise, a card play oriented game of the period from
the end of the Mexican-American War to the start of the Civil
War. Though little combat occurs, the card play covers the actions inspiring events, leaders and regional positions (Border
States) that affect the allegiance of states to a region and
the ability of military leaders at the start of the Civil War.
Crisis & Compromise can be played alone or used to create
alternative starting situations for the ACW. Three maps, 560
small counters, 200 cards. Barry Altshuler. Est. Retail: $160

5. Wellington’s Victory (NEW!/SPI Update).
An update of the SPI classic grand tactical simulation of
Waterloo. This will retain the feel of the original—the fragility of dense units in the open, the efficacy of different arms
and formations at different times—while addressing some
of the shortcomings of the original. Gone is the asymmetric
turn sequence which so hampered the Prussians and gave
cavalry near-immunity from artillery: in its place, a simplified sequence that retains the continual interplay between
sides. Gone too are the step reduction markers; units will be
presented on several counters so losses can reflect diminution of both numbers and morale. Large units—such as the
Nassauers, Prussians, British Guards, and most cavalry regiments—will have two or more counters in play. Formations
for infantry, cavalry, and artillery will be handled with markers
and will reflect doctrinal differences between the armies.
Skirmishers will be tamed, providing neither the spearhead
of the offensive nor the bulwark of the defense. Entirely new
rules provide for hidden movement and optional reinforcements for both sides. For details [and progress reports], go
to the CSW web site, Napoleonic folder, for Wellington’s
Victory 2015. Four maps, eight counter sheets. Chris Perello.

6. Free Mars (SPI). From the colonies of Mars to the
orbital stations of Earth and to the outposts on Jupiter, the
cry is heard. Free Mars! is a science fiction wargame of
revolt across the Solar System in the late 21st century. Earth’s
colonies are rising up against an oppressive Terran Federation. The system is based on SPI’s Battlefleet Mars, but
with additional forces and units representing several types of
spaceships, ground units and special forces. Special weapons
include artificial intelligence missiles, cybernetic attacks
and enhancement of human warriors via nano-technology.
Cards representing the various military-political-economic
groups that are maneuvering for power are included. The map
shows the Solar System out to Jupiter, with displays for each
planet. Joseph Miranda. Est. retail $80 (Est. Pledge $60).

in central Asia. There would be specialized units for the
Macedonian Companions. Roman legions would have their
Hastati, Principes, and Triarii. Leaders would include ‘greats’
such as Alexander, Hannibal and Scipio, as well as not-sogreats. Joseph Miranda. Est. retail: $80 (Est. pledge: $60).
8. Campaign for North Africa (SPI). There is no
paperwork or data tracking in this remake of the SPI classic;
streamlined but realistic procedures allow the realistic
portrayal of unit assignment and supply expenditure. Command and control cards drive the action, enabling a player to
tailor his emphasis on building units, gathering intelligence,
conducting operations, or building up supplies. The map has
been given a graphic update. The air war is updated and
enhanced and the OOB presents the latest research with all
units at a battalion level (armor in companies and air units
in squadrons). Now it’s the ultimate North Africa simulation.
Joseph Miranda. Est. Retail $200 (Est. Pledge $150).
12. Rome & the Barbarians is a grand strategic-level,
Krieg!-style game describing the era of Rome’s expansion and later decline across Europe and Africa, from 300
BCE to 500 CE. The game centers on the Roman wars with
the Barbarian Tribes and Civilized Nations from the time of
Rome’s first consolidation of the Italian peninsula, through
its expansion as a Republic and later as an Empire, to the
Fall of Rome at the hands of the Barbarian tribes. Multi-step
legion and infantry units are built by adding together basic
infantry one-step units. Many special units exist including
cavalry, heavy cavalry, siege units, fortress (entrenched
camps), archers and naval units. A basic turn represents 25
years, but periodic Leader Turns dominated by Great Leaders, compress turns into five year periods. Strategy Cards
provide replacement steps, units, leaders, markers and also
political events. These may result in conflict between Rome
and other factions as well as unintended political, economic
and social events, including the possibility of Roman Civil
War. Rome’s ability to create a road network determines
both unit supply and movement. The success of Rome’s
control of the map, compared with the Barbarian player’s
ability to challenge that expansion determines the game’s
winner. Maps cover Europe from Britain to the Northern
coast of Africa and from Spain to Parthia (Persia). Pieces
represent the Great Leaders, infantry, legions, and cavalry
of the era, as well as an assortment of markers and Strategy
Cards. Two maps, two counter sheets, one deck of 110
cards. Barry Altshuler. Est. Retail: $120 (Est. Pledge $90).
9. Hand of Fate: The Vietnam War. Players choose
Campaign Cards that would generate reinforcements and
political events. The Campaign Cards would replace the
complex political rules often required to simulate the Vietnam
conflict. Players can choose different levels of escalation
that will generate varying levels of forces, at a trade-off
in political support and military efficiency. The Communist
player could choose between low level terrorism, mid-level
guerrilla warfare, or a full scale Tet-style offensive. The
Allied player could choose to intervene with just US special
forces, or mobilize for an all-or-nothing invasion of Communist sanctuaries in Laos and Cambodia. Game units will
be brigades/regiments and divisions/Viet Cong fronts, rated
for their conventional and unconventional capabilities. The
map will cover all of Indochina. A semi-abstract system will
model air operations. Two maps, three counter sheets, 220
cards. Joseph Miranda. Est. retail: $100. (Est. Pledge $75).

10. Eagles: Battles of the Roman Empire
(NEW!) is a game covering the battles of the Roman
Empire from c. 100 BC to c. 600 AD at the tactical level. The
game would use three different sized units: rectangular for
groups of Cohorts and other linear units; large to represent
barbarian hordes and other massed formations; and small
for leaders and specialized formations. The game map would
use large hexagons, and the positioning of units within the
hex would represent the formation. Thus, it will be possible
to graphically show the various number of lines of cohorts
in a legion. Units will represent all major troops types, such
as legionaries, auxiliaries, cavalry, elephants, barbarians,
ballistae, cataphracts, and so forth. Game scenarios will be
constructed by using various mixes of units. There will be at
least 50 different scenarios, reconstructed by the designer,
to include the battles of Julius Caesar, Agricola, Trajan,
Marcus Aurelius, Claudius Gothicus, Constantine, Julian,
Stilicho and Belisarius among many others. There will be
special rules to show the tactics of each era. Thus, Julius
Caesar’s legions will operate differently from Julian’s field
armies. Leaders will provide command control, and army
morale will be important. The game will include two maps
showing various kinds of typical battlefields. The game will
include historical notes so players can develop their own
scenarios. Joseph Miranda. Est. retail: $80 (Est. pledge: $60).
11. Titans: Battles of the Greek Empire (NEW!)
is a game covering the battles of the Greek, Macedonian and
Roman Republic eras, 500 BC to 100BC, using a system similar
to Eagles (above). The game would use three different sized
units: large to represent barbarian hordes and other massed
formations; rectangular for linear formations; and small for
leaders and specialized formations. The game would include
such great battles as Marathon, Arbela, Cannae and Zama, as
well as going into terra incognita with Alexander’s actions
13. Imperium: the Wars of the Roman Empire
(NEW!). This will cover the campaigns of the early Roman
Empire, from the reign of Augustus through Marcus Aurelius,
on the operational scale. One player commands the Romans,
the other the Barbarians. Game play would be driven by
cards which will generate command control for each side as
well as special events. The Romans will generally have an
advantage here, but their foes can spring a Teutorburg style
surprise which can unhinge the entire Empire. The game
would be played in scenarios, each representing a major
war or invasion. Units will be legions, groups of auxiliaries,
barbarian hordes, siege trains, fleets, and others. Legions
can be broken down into vexillations (task forces). All major
leaders will be included, as well as generic minor commanders. The map will stretch from Britain to Persia. Scenarios will
be of varying size: mini-games (such as Agricola’s campaign
in Britannia); major wars (Trajan versus the Parthians);
and continent wide conflagrations (Marcus Aurelius versus
everyone). Two maps, two sheets of counters, one deck of
cards. Joseph Miranda. Est. retail: $80 (Est. pledge: $60).

14. Nelson’s Victory: The Royal Navy at War,
1793-1805. The Anglo-French naval struggle combining
elements of SPI’s CA, TAHGC’s War at Sea and XTR’s Red
Sky Morning. The map will cover from the Caribbean to
the eastern Mediterranean. Combat will use an evolution
of WaS’s and CA’s simple systems, with modifications to
account for the tactics of the age of sail. Annual game turns
are driven by RSM’s system of impulses that shift unpredictably from player to player, depicting the uncertainties of the
era’s naval warfare. Three large-size counter sheets (528)
will depict the ships-of-the-line (64 guns and up) of 11 navies,
plus a sheet of markers. (Est. retail: $64; est. pledge: $48).

naval warfare, air operations, guerrillas, and more. Nine
maps, 16 counter sheets. Est. retail $320 (Est. Pledge $240)
World War II Global & Theater-wide
17. World War at Sea (NEW!). The German Navy
construction plan (Plan “Z”) and the Japanese accelerated
naval production In violation of the Washington Treaty
(plus the Italian Navy) would have made the Axis the most
powerful navies in the world had World War II not started
in 1939. But the powerful Yamato class and Bismarck class
task forces build by the Japanese and Germans would not
have gone unchallenged by the Allies. The US Montana
class battleships and Essex carriers plus Great Britain’s
Vanguard class battleships and Centaur carriers would
have set the stage for the greatest naval clash ever seen.
The outcome of World War II would have been determined
on the vast oceans of the world. World War at Sea uses
a variant of the classic War at Sea system to simulate the
global struggle for naval dominance. Two maps, six counter
sheets. Gary Wietstruck. Est. Retail $80 (Est. Pledge $60).
18. Board War in Europe (SPI). An update will bring
this game into the 21st century. In-house discussion is about

22. Panzer Commander (NEW!). Tactical World
War II combat, using new research that will allow players
to replicate actual tactics of the armies involved. Units will
be platoons and companies. Central to the game is command control, represented by cards that allow for enhanced
movement and combat capabilities such as combined
arms warfare. Battlefield morale will also be a factor. Also
included are airpower, headquarters units, and battlefield
recovery of damaged armor. Panzer Commander will
include 20 or so scenarios drawn from the Eastern Front
1941-45: actions that were part of the great encirclements
of 1941, the Stalingrad battle, Kursk, Manstein’s mobile
actions, destruction of Army Group Center, etc. Future
games in the series will provide units for the Campaign
in the West 1940, North Africa, and D-Day to the Bulge.

the ultimate boxed upgrade of the Barbarossa game that
recently appeared in World at War’s first issue. There will be
two extra-large-hex maps along with 352 large-size (5/8”)
NATO-style counters. The extra counter space will be filled
with add-on counters (German fortress city garrisons, Soviet
artillery corps, etc.), an optional add-on air combat system,
and control markers. New historical short scenarios would
have start dates of July ’43, June ’44 and Dec ’44. A May ’41
“Stalin Strikes First” alternative history scenario would also
be included. Ty Bomba. Est. Retail: $60 (Est. Pledge $45).
25. Zhukov’s Offensive (NEW!). The 1942
Soviet offensive aimed at destroying the 9 th German Army
at Rzhev. This game would use the DG Cobra system.
Map scale would be 2-3 miles per hex with game turns
representing two days per turn. Two maps, three counter
sheets. Joe Youst. Est. Retail: $68 (Est. Pledge $51).
WW2 Western Front
26. Breakout & Pursuit (NEW!). This is the campaign
in Western Europe, 1944, starting with the Allied Cobra offensive and going through January of the year following with the
potential for a Battle of the Bulge. Central to the game will
be a deck of operations cards for each player, representing
the planning and logistical operations for major operations.
For examples, the Allies will have a card for Market-Garden
which can be traded off for another card giving logistical
support to Patton’s drive to the Rhine. The Germans will
have cards which, when used individually, will give them
reinforcements, or when combined can be used to launch
an Ardennes Offensive. Game units will be divisional with
breakdowns into Allied task forces and German kampfgruppen. Airpower is represented with a simple system. Special
units will include leaders such as Patton, Skorzeny commandos, and others. Two maps, two sheets of counters, one deck
of cards. Joseph Miranda. Est. retail: $80 (Est. pledge: $60).

inactivity being telescoped. Two maps, three counter
sheets. Joe Youst Est. Retail: $68 (Est. Pledge $51).
31. Panzerarmee Afrika: Decision in North
Africa (NEW!). This is the entire campaign in North
Africa/Middle East, 1940-43. The game map will stretch from
the Persian Gulf to Casablanca. The game can be played in
individual scenarios for major operations (such as Rommel’s initial offensive or Operation Crusader), or as one big
campaign. The game will emphasize simplicity. It will use
a deck of cards to generate specific operations, which will
in turn give a player additional move-fight impulses. Units
will be divisions with brigade and regimental breakdowns.
Airpower will be represented at the operational level, with
air units flying specific missions. Also included will be a
potential invasion of Malta, optional reinforcements, pro-Axis
coups in the Allied rear. Leaders will be a major factor, and
having the right commander at the right place can make
a major difference. The game will have a wide range of
historical what-ifs: for example, the Germans can commit
the 7th Flieger (Airborne) Division to taking Malta in 1941
instead of Crete. The British can launch Operation Acrobat
in early 1941 using the forces which intervened in Greece to
instead invade Tripolitania. There would also be a what-if
scenario based on Hitler giving North Africa a higher priority
for reinforcement and logistics, with a comparative Allied
response, including early US intervention. Panzerarmee
Afrika will give wargamers the opportunity to decide the fate
of North Africa. Two maps, two counter sheets, one deck of
cards. Joseph Miranda. Est. Retail: $80 (Est. Pledge $60).
Modern
32. Battle for South Vietnam: 1964-1975. Battle
for Vietnam is a two-player card-driven strategy game
covering the war in Indochina from the time of first US direct
involvement until the fall of Saigon. The map covers the entirety of South Vietnam as well as border regions of neighboring countries. Combat units represent Allied and Communist
forces on the regimental-divisional level, and a Support Point
track abstractly indicates the level of artillery and air support
available to the players. The goal of the game as the Allied
player is to prevent the fall of South Vietnam without losing
excessive prestige and support within the world community
(“losing face”), while the goal of the Communist player is to
end US involvement as soon as possible so that he may face
and defeat South Vietnam alone. BSVN is fast paced with a
great deal of tension, options, and decision making throughout
the game. One map, one sheet of large counters, 110 cards.

Starforce Trilogy (SPI) (new). A deluxe update of
the SPI science fiction opus: Star Force, Star Soldier,
Outreach—three games covering interstellar warfare on the strategic, tactical and galactic scales.
Dispatch #26 | d e c i s i o n
33. Star Force Alpha Centauri covers the initial
human penetration into interstellar space, with the map
showing the local group of stars in three dimensions. This
will have several different races of sentient beings, each
with their own psychology, reflected in different capabilities
and objectives. Game units will include: star forces (four
ships each), star gates, and star soldier strike commands.
There will also be some specialized units, such as local
forces of varying capability, weapons packs for star forces,
and nova inducing conversion bombs for when things get
really desperate. A deck of cards will generate specialized capabilities for each sentient race as well as game
events, allowing for the linking of individual scenarios into
one grand game. One map, one counter sheet, one deck of
cards. Joseph Miranda. (Est. retail: $60; est. pledge: $45).
34. Outreach covers the conquest of the Galaxy. Each
player will represent a different sentient race, each with
its own special capabilities. Players will have various
types of star forces which can be used to explore galactic
regions and engage in combat. The game map will depict
the entire Milky Way Galaxy, divided up into hexagons.
Star forces explore a hex by drawing a card from a deck
which will gives local star system resources, types of
sentient populations (if any), and unique conditions (such
as collapsars which can be used as ersatz star gates). Each
card will have a corresponding marker which will be placed
on the map in the explored hexagon. The game will also
include an interface with Star Force for tactical resolution of battles. One map, one counter sheet, one deck of
cards. Joseph Miranda. (Est. retail: $60; est. pledge: $45).
35. Star Soldier covers combat actions between elite
star soldier forces fighting for control of planets in the Star
Force universe. Units will represent several types of star
soldiers, support platforms, ground forces, and orbital support. Each of the sentient races from the Star Force universe
will have its own separate set of capabilities. There will
also be various types of hostile aliens for the occasional
bug hunt (and the bugs may have hidden abilities which can
really bite back!). The game will use geomorphic maps to
portray different types of environs, as well as a space map
for scenarios set around assaulting enemy star gates. Cards
will provide individual leaders, random events and secret
objectives. Geomorphic maps, one counter sheet, one deck of
cards. Joseph Miranda. (Est. retail: $60; est. pledge: $45).
36. Contact with Krishna. Players must explore a giant
alien spaceship which has entered the solar system. There
are two general types of cards in the game. One is a set of
deck cards which are laid out face down to form the interior
of the spaceship. The other is a set of exploration cards,
which players use to interact with the spaceship. Each player
will have a marker representing their exploration team. As
each team moves throughout the ship, deck cards are tuned
face up. Depending on what the deck represents, different
types of interactions become possible. Players resolve these
interactions by playing special exploration cards. Certain
cards can be combined with other cards for enhanced effects.
There are several objectives, including determining the origin
of the ship, its purpose, and how to maneuver it. The game
can be played solitaire, competitively with two or more players, or cooperatively with teams of players. Two decks of 55
cards. Joseph Miranda. (Est. retail: $28; est. pledge: $21).

41. Bushido & Kamikaze: Strategy & Tactics in
the PTO will reexamine many of the common assumptions
about the PTO, using analytical methods developed in Strategy
& Tactics and World at War. Chapters will cover topics such
as: Bushido; Japanese tactics are often considered to be
motivated by a samurai spirit, but the reality was that the
Japanese military was a modern disciplined fighting force,
organized to fight a particular type of war, not relive medieval
glories. Carrier battles; these are usually seen as the major
turning points, but the reality is that there were far more
surface battles, and surface ships sunk more combatants
than did carrier planes. Japanese naval doctrine; this called
for the fighting of the decisive battles yet Japanese naval
deployments after the early months of the war tended to
be fragmented, thereby throwing away their chance to gain
the ascendancy in the Pacific. The sharp end; a comparison
of Japanese and Allied infantry divisions demonstrates
that the Japanese had as much combat power as did the
Americans and Britishbut Japanese tactical failures were
often a result of lacking supply in island battles such as
Guadalcanal, or losing air cover as at Imphal. The air war;
the collapse of Japanese airpower is usually blamed on
declining pilot quality, but other factors such as poor ground
support, abysmal intelligence, and a lack of air-sea rescue
service, also had their hand. The CBI theater, Japans lost
victory; the Japanese largely attained their objectives
in the China-Burma-India theater of operations yet could
not exploit that for ultimate victorythis will explore some
what-ifs. Kamikazes; the historical record shows that the
various Japanese suicide forces were not a revival of samurai
tradition but rather a desperation measure, one which
was opposed by many in the Japanese high command. The
book will include numerous maps, order of battle diagrams
and charts, as well as scenario guides for wargamers.

40. High Ground: The Art of Using Terrain in
Battle. Each chapter focuses on one battle (not necessarily
from any particular era) in which a single piece of terrain had
an impact on a battle: e.g. high ground for observation, high
ground as psychology (the Pratzen at Austerlitz), a river as a
curtain of maneuver, etc. In some cases the terrain surprises
both sides, in others one commander makes a conscious decision to use it. Chris Perello. Est. retail: $35 (Est. Pledge $28).
WAR IN
EUROPE
War in europe is a computer-moderated
simulation of the European Theater of Operations in World War II. There’s no computer / AI
player in the game; players make all the critical
decisions. You decide on production schedules,
declare war on neutral nations, and control the
ground, air, sea and strategic forces of the Axis,
Allied and Soviet powers in order to change or
recreate the events of the war. The game is a division-level simulation, with some
brigade and corps-sized ground units. Play takes place on a 159x133 hex map of
Europe and North Africa. Naval power and air power are abstracted as points
rather than on-map units, including: surface fleet, U-Boat, transport, amphibious
assault, tactical air and strategic bomber points.
Battle on three fronts — War in the West (two-player, Allies versus Axis); War
in the East (two- player, Soviets versus Axis); and War in Europe (three-player,
Axis versus Allies & Soviets). Select from 10 scenarios (shorter games focused on
a single major offensive), or 16 campaigns (the whole war from a specified date
through May ‘45 or the defeat of one side). Fully integrated PBEM mode, with

battle and instead nibbled at the heels of the British army.
Hogwash, General Washington sought decisive battle
again and again; at Boston, New York, Trenton/Princeton,
Brandywine, Germantown, Monmouth, and finally Yorktown.
This book will be an examination of the general’s overall
war strategy and how he used small victories like Trenton
to keep the colonies fighting. The book will delve into his
tactics, how they led to disaster at places like New York
and Brandywine, and how he learned from his mistakes.
The book will also discuss Washington’s indispensable men,
generals like Nathanael Greene, Henry Knox and Daniel
Morgan. Will Stroock. Est. retail: $35 (Est. Pledge $28).

39. Joint Warfare is an analysis of the history and
practice of joint operation: the integration of all military
forces into a single instrument of warfare. The book will
include several historical case studies, such as the Roman
use of combined land-naval forces; the Guadalcanal campaign
in World War II; the US SEALORDS campaign in the Mekong
Delta; and current operations in the Middle East conflict.
The book will look at land, sea and air forces, as well as
special operations forces and other instruments of national
power. One aspect will be the development of “bottom-up”
joint operations, where local commanders decide work out
their own command relationships, as opposed to “top-down”
situations. The book will include numerous maps and orders
of battle. Joseph Miranda. Est. retail: $35 (Est. Pledge $28).

38. Barbarossa is an analysis of the decisions that
shaped the first 18 months of the Eastern Front. Major
what-if possibilities are reviewed including an earlier
start to the campaign, an earlier drive to capture Moscow, a Soviet first strike, and alternative plans to 1942
campaign. John Burtt. Est. retail: $35 (Est. Pledge $28).
points: Rommel exceeded his orders in his 1941 and 1942
offensives, possibly dragging the Axis into campaigns which
were not strategically viable yet which had the potential to
be war winning events. Malta; the Axis failure to take the
island occurred not in 1942 as Rommel was preparing to
drive on Alexandria, but in 1941 at the start of the desert
campaign. The logistics myth; the Axis dilemma was not
in getting supplies to North Africa their real failure was in
other areas related to logistics. The air war; German and
Italian air support often made the difference between victory
and defeat on the ground, but seldom appears in the order
of battle. Combined operations and the lack thereof; both
side’s ground, air and naval commanders fought separate
campaigns thereby throwing away the chance for an early
victory. Leadership, command control and organization: the
Germans started with a decisive edge in these areas and
the ultimate British victory was not in the materiel buildup
but rather in them catching up in the non-material factors.
Odds and ends; various special operations forces and unique
forces such as the Tobruk Raiders, Ramcke and his paratroopers, and the curious career of Sonderverband 288. The book
will include numerous maps, order of battle diagrams and
charts. Joseph Miranda. Est. retail: $35 (Est. Pledge $28).
