I am aware of Multi-Man's offering of KARELIA but have not yet looked it over. For some reason (probably inertia), I have yet to pick up a copy of GMT's excellent ARCTIC STORM, but -- for reasons I'm still not clear about -- I did purchase Avalanche Press&JCB IIIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16490081362549015107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836956334020662322.post-54624857761862264172011-09-22T19:03:40.153-07:002011-09-22T19:03:40.153-07:00A couple of new games are out or coming on this wo...A couple of new games are out or coming on this wonderfully interesting, and terrible conflict. Kariela and Red Winter. Both are very good.<br /><br />I posted a cinematic play thru of Redwinter on my blog, it was THAT moving. Really gives the feel for the game, the desperation, the barren conditions.<br /><br />Take a look on my user name under the tag : Red WinterAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836956334020662322.post-38295977497817759792010-12-24T12:27:11.279-08:002010-12-24T12:27:11.279-08:00Greetings Kim:

And although I typically include the 'Historical Background' segments with the game profiles so as to place the simulations within some sort of historical context, I will, nonetheless, see what i can do about your query.<br /><br />The first problem in cases like this, unfortunately, is almost JCB IIIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16490081362549015107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836956334020662322.post-64051424666717273062010-05-20T19:20:10.512-07:002010-05-20T19:20:10.512-07:00urrrrggg not enough INFOOOO -.-
