Not Rommel?

Yes.. A few pics of one of the playtests of Rommel.. A totally new WW2 gaming system for large scale battles.. Using a card system and allowing you to use any scale of miniatures:)

What does one stand represent ?

A Company…this game will really shine using 15mm FOW miniatures and give you the option to fight large scale WW2 operations:)

Looks like it uses a grid, too. Which is a good thing for large scale rules. Looking forward to Sam doing WW2; his rules are always playable and fun.

Hey, look: an excuse for me to buy 3mm! :)

Here's a few more pics of the Rommel playtests…Beach landings!…this playtest for me was the best beach landing game system I have certainly ever played…a real nail biter:)

Here's a few National cards from the game Rommel…Allied and German, they certainly add lots of depth and theme to the game:)

A company per stand. Was hoping they would be battalion and a player could run a division or corps. At least they are a step up from platoon stands.

Sam Mustafa has created Rommel to be a very flexible game system and I have a feeling that lots of gamers will certainly add lots of variants to the rule set?
