A year or two ago someone attempted to put together a game or a source book set in the U.S. during the 1930s and based off of the Very British Civil War games and books. Does anyone know if this project ever went anywhere? |

Never heard of it. Wouldn't it be easier to steal all the Crimson Skies stuff than to reinvent the wheel? |

I think they pulled it or it failed. As far as I know it never went to market. |

There was a really bad SPI game by the name of Dixie published in the late 70s. The premise was identical. It was one of their least compelling efforts. |

A friend and I put together a Booklet called " A Very Divided America" That was a source book for that period. We have run games at GenCon for the last 4 years (15mm and 25 mm ) based on that . But there were another couple of projects -one of which was a figure kickstart that failed to get off the ground . The other one I am not too sure about . |

I had toyed with some ideas for a FiveCore game based off it, but it didn't end up sparking a lot of interest. I think without a figure line tied into it, it's probably not much of a draw. |

The one with figures tied to it failed to make its funding goal and was cancelled. This one: 1933: A Nation Divided (Canceled) by Alex Bagosy |

Cyrus, That is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for your help. I wonder if they might consider getting this project going again. It looked as though it had some real potential. Kevin |

Kevin C. I can ask my friend about that -he is friends with Alex. just PM me |

I was in for the book, as the figures were, in my opinion, rather uninspired. |
