I think 1941 is good game for us newbies to wargames. I too find it hard to find people to play with and this game takes about 3-4 hours for me to play.
It offers enough challenge and tactical choices, even though I agree the map is too small
Krieg has said on Larry’s site that they are happy for us to give the US an Atlantic Destroyer and the Russians 2 Infantry. They said see if that changes things and what we thought of that.
Hey Vegryn concerning the reprint I personally think you are going to get it. And I think you will get it with the new updated sculpts that are going to be in 41 and 42. I would expect them late in the year though. September or October just a guess. The fact that they got all the pieces being made now would make me believe they will do it now. The map and rules I think wouldn’t be to hard to make. We shall see.
