GMT Fall Sale

Is anyone thinking about getting any games in the fall sale? I've been thinking about Twilight Struggle or Europe Engulfed.

--Mike L.

I've been very tempted but honestly there isn't anything I *really* need. I did a P500 so I could get 2 half price games. Right now what I was thinking about, but probably won't get are:

1914: Twilight in the East
Pursuit of Glory
Successors
Maybe Combat Commander? SPQR or Deluxe Alexander...?

I would have picked Downtown, but now that the Canadian $$ has crashed I'm not so sure.

I think I would definitely buy Unhappy King Charles or Field of Fire if I could get them for 1/2 price, but those came out too late to be eligible...

I'll likely get C&C:Ancients expansions #2 and 3. The price on Under the Lily Banners is damn tempting too.

I ordered Combat Commander: Mediterranean, despite having barely played the original (though I hope to address that particular lack this weekend), partly because I figured it had to be about that cheap for me to buy it. Someone was trying to talk me into Europe Engulfed, but I went with FAB: The Bulge instead for a bit smaller scale. EE can wait, and it alone wouldn't have been a very big cost savings anyway. (Not that CC:M and FAB were all that much cheaper, really, but that's what I told myself.)

You'll be very happy with FAB, I think. It is probably the best wargame I've played from this year, just edging out Clash of Monarchs.

I picked up GBoH: Ran [just got Samurai, Caesar in Alexandria, and War Galley in a run of trades too; now I'm trying to find a copy of Cataphract....] and Cowboy: Way of the Gun using the various coupons.

I may go back to the well to pick up Alesia and Devil's Horsemen to round out the GBoH collection, though I think that, even with the 20% coupon, it's still cheaper to get them from Wargame Depot...


Edit: @GarySax--Deluxe SPQR is *totally* worth the money at any price but a real steal for 50% off, as is Alexander. Both solo well and have scalable complexity thanks to the Simple GBoH rules. Deluxe SPQR contains a shit-ton of additional long-OOP scenarios [Alexander does too for that matter, but the SPQR big box is a thing of beauty for Sword & Sandals wargaming...]. Plus, if you pick up the Simple GBoH battle manual down the road, you'll have about as much Legionnaire warfare as you could possibly want.
