I played crap out of the old Milton Bradley version back in the day. I lost/sold/gave away my copy of the game a some point.
Recently, I found 1941 at Target for 8 bucks, so I snatched it up. some friends and I played it that night and I noticed it was a lot different, I like that it’s not as time consuming as the original.
That being said, I hit Ebay and scored a copy of the old MB version.
