Does anyone have a spare copy laying around? I found a boxed set of these with all the counters unpunched, but the main rule book and at least a couple of the guide sheets are missing. I was not able to find it in PDF anywhere on-line. |

You may also want to look for a copy of Fire in the East, as Scorched Earth is not a complete game in itself. |

Wow, I listed this and after only 12 views and one day it sold already. Guess the rule book is not that much of a problem after all. |

At this point in time Scorched Earth is wanted more for the maps and counters than the rules. (Says a guys who has 3 copies of each). The whole Europa thing is a really strong addiction. You find yourself buying just one more copy of anything… just in case. I know that, after 30 od years I can give it up any time I want. Any time at all. Honest. |

LoL, I had a friend who worked with Winston Hamilton when GRD In Grinnell Iowa was re-printing all this stuff under license. His name is in the credits for Europa news for help on several issues. Working for Winston was the only way a kid in HS here could afford these sets at the time. The first time we played one of these I think we messed something up cause we were both pretty well decimated by turn 8 and reinforcements were going to be meaningless by that point. I don't remember how many times we tried to play it now. I would have loved to see someone try to do the "Grand Europa" that Winston dreamed of, but did not live long enough to complete. |
