Rommel & Monty review SGS Afrika Korps

Since losing the Flare Path dimension debate by a whisker last April, my old mate Erwin Rommel has been been itching for a rematch. When I heard on the grognard grapevine that he and Bernie Montgomery didn’t see eye to eye on SGS Afrika Korps, a standalone £19.50 Wars Across the World spin-off, I realised I finally had a suitable subject for that rematch. Ladies and gentlemen, please put your hands together for two men whose knowledge of desert warfare would fill the Qattara Depression.

If you’re aware of any interesting games with Strv 103-low profiles, please drop me a line).

Yesterday’s jam

Last autumn, a month before the lights of The Flare Path blinked out unexpectedly, I asked readers to “Make me a Bismarck game out of code or cardboard”.

Now these submissions have been playtested and Tally-Ho Corner is finally open for business, there’s no reason why the delayed awards ceremony can’t…
