So in preparation for an imminent project launched by myself and @yavasa – we’re going to be doing wargames commemorating the upcoming 80th Anniversary of the “official” start of World War II.
September 1, 2019 will mark the 80th Anniversary of Germany’s invasion of Poland.
Accordingly, I’ve been building counters for Panzer Leader so these games can start being run through August and into early September.
The Polish I had to start more or oless from scratch. The German counters I’ve had by and large for years, but they included a mid-war German camo scheme in their graphics … so wasn’t really appropriate for 1939. Also, they needed a facelift anyway. Also also, some game values had to be tweaked to mesh with new updates (some of which are more or less universally adopted from the Arab-Israeli Wars rules engine, and some of them I wrote myself as part of the PanzerBlitz: Liberation update).
But anyway, this counter set should do us good service. Now just to draw some maps. @yavasa , meanwhile, is researching many of the battles and picking out the historical touch-points we feel will make the best scenarios.
