Hmmm…just glancing through, I just had to sigh at the World at War refight. The player taking the Wehrmacht force succumbed to the "King Tiger" syndrome. Three infantry squads…and a Tiger II and a pair of PzIVs.

Mind you, if it is anything similar the FoW game nights down at my local gaming store, at least there ARE some infantry and guns included. Apparently a rather successful for those FoW gaming nights is a Late War German armoured force consisting of entirely Panthers. Nothing else.

The really amusing thing is that judging from the photo on page 19, that isn't even a Tiger II!

Ah well, as long as they had fun playing it, that's the important thing.
