Model Dads slips between the pages of September's Wargames Illustrated to update you on the long-awaited Barbarossa intelligence handbook for Flames of War: link

Still want a battle of the Bulge campaign or North Africa Campaign more.

Since Great War is designed for 4 x 4 tables, wonder if that would help moving things toward any eventual PTO release.

They could make a beach landing map ala Bridge at Remagen and/or battlefield in a box landing box like they are doing for the WW1 trench line.

Like the fact that Barbarossa is coming out- migrating to that campaign soon. But would definitely like to see the Pacific!

I just listened to Breakthrough Assault Podcast #18 which included an interview from Mike Haught. The "Pacific When" question was addressed and the answer, unfortunately from my perspective, is not any time soon. There was a big of discussion about how compatible it might be with ETO forces and there was suggestion that it might end up as its own separate period/focus, maybe something more like FoW-Vietnam is now.

I'm not too dismayed though. I thought the FoW-1918 and FoW-Pacific Yahoo groups have done a great job getting gamers into the periods/areas they want to game in well ahead of "official releases." I really liked Brokelow's Arab-Israeli blog/list which I was using long before BF's "Fate of a Nation" release and I still prefer Blokelow's list/rules.

Cheers, VB

Barbarossa is the next logical step after Blitzkrieg and Rising Sun.

Pacific? All in good time, all in good time.
