I find many standard two-player wargames play just fine solitaire, especially if they have some…"

Broadsword commented on Roger Morley's blog post Computer Wargame Blitzkrieg"Roger,
I'm surprised not to see any mention of Combat Mission: Battle for Normandy (2011 Charles Roberts award winner). It's got an authenticity to it that appeals to a lot of traditional hardcore board war gamers. Its TO&E is so…"

"Thanks for posting this, Roger! Nice to see another newcomer to PG:BN. It's the only PG game I have, but it's got all I need for loads of fun gaming. A couple of things I wanted to share:

Broadsword commented on Eric Walters's group Avalanche Press -- PanzerGrenadier System"How do the PG games play as solitaire? Has anyone developed some add-on rules specifically to make solo play work better? For example, I read one AAR where a solitaire player picked a 6-hex area for preplanned artillery and rolled a die each…"

Combat Mission: Battle for Normandy (Battlefront)
Since so many here are boardgame veterans, I thought I'd start a discussion about CM:BN. FYI, I've developed a set of conversion rules for Joseph Balkoski's classic "St.-Lo" (West End Games) so it can be used as an operational layer to set up the tactical battles for CM;BN. Thes scales of these two games (battalions and companies) mesh almost perfectly. About 2/3 of the St Lo boardgame map is already being mirrored in 3D terrain for CM;BN.
