Lots of back and forth action between players and I also appreciate the exciting things that can pop up during a turn (ie needing a 6 to activate or react and he gets a 6, etc) it plays out like a narrative of WW2 combat and I appreciate that.Disgruntled Fusilierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10995610821904415726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1194255716971534690.post-26243038349496221542020-02-25T05:03:30.373-05:002020-02-25T05:03:30.373-05:00Thank you Norm.
