Hi Nick, Yes the game is all done. The map is 22" x 34". The cards print on letter size paper. If you use ArtsCow they usually have deals so you can order all three decks for $7 a piece. Just use the link in the original post. When you fill in the…

Oral history - my Dad at Hiroshima

I had lunch with my father today, and the subject of the anniversary of dropping the A-Bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki came up. My father was an 18 year old sargeant in the Counter Intelligence Corps stationed in Tokio immediately after the War. The CIC was a precursor of the CIA. His barracks was in the old Japanese Secret Police Headquarters, where the Japanese did their interrogations of captured US airmen. He had a desk on the 8th floor of the Taekoko building, which was across the street fro… Continue

Have you ever wondered what happened when you rolled for realignment or a coup in Twilight Struggle?…

Have you ever wondered what happened when you rolled for realignment or a coup in Twilight Struggle? The shift in power may represent a takeover by a military junta, or a coup d'etat orchestrated by rivals, a retiring leader replaced by a reformer, or bloody rioting in the streets. The game 1989: Dawn of Freedom is a conflict simulation of the events that lead to the overthrow of Communist regimes across Eastern Europe. It is modeled on the mechanics of Twilight Struggle, wi… Continue

In case you're wondering i'm stuck since a week, i got a 90% complete crude module and and some nasty bugs i can't root out.
At 11:34am on October 20, 2008, jeibel said…
Well, if you mail it to me i could upload it to BGG. Hopefully it will spark some interest back into the game. Thanks & See Ya

Thank you for the quick and kind answer. I just started and i hope i can get it done in a reasonable time (couple of weeks?).Complete newbie here, hope not to get stuck. I have some question about the rules but these do not pertain to design so thay can wait. Are you aware the rulebook is missing a part of paragraph 7.1 ?
Cheers

Hi Ted, i'm trying to build a VASSAL module for Free at Last, i did not find any other way to contact you other than this. Are you ok with it ?
I could not find a precise ruling over this: are the counters available meant to be an absolute limit or not ? You say they are freely exchangeble, but not if they are all the forces that should be available. I ask because this would make for a different design.I just started to do the graphics so i am still in high waters. I hope to hear from you, if you want to mail me, bundaufilm at gmail dot com . Thanks !

Ted,
Thank you! I found about about the CSR about half an hour ago, and with the extremely deserving magazines nominated, I'm still pleasantly surprised.
