The Book – Great War: World War One Battles of 1918

Great War Design Notes World War One Battles of 1918 1918 saw great changes in the warfare of the Western Front. Russia pulled out of the war, freeing thousands more German troops to push the Allies back huge distances. The Allied counteroffensives, with the new tanks, evolving tactics, and the arrival of the Americans, forced the Germans back towards their own borders and defeat. The 2023 re-release of Great War brings you the same great range released in 2018 - no changes, updates or modifications!  Great War Design Notes...

For those returning to this era (or never left) and those that are new to this era, getting a British starter box, Mitchell’s Marauders is a great starting point to build or enlarge an existing army.

Getting Started in the Great War with Brett’s Brawlers With For Warned Forearmed Hi all, and welcome back to another article with your local S2. This time we are taking a trip into history as we look at starting a new army in the Great War. The group I game with is looking at trying something different, and we decided it would be interesting to give Great War a go as it’s a niche game with interesting game mechanics that are similar to Flames Of War and WWIII: Team Yankee for the base rules but change slightly to show just how much it was a war of attrition until the invention of the Tank.  Click here to continue reading...
