We received the following: ANZAC Attack On The March! Throw another VC on the barbie mate 'cos ANZAC Attack, the highly anticipated expansion to the award-winning boardgame, Mark H. Walker's Lock 'N Load: Forgotten Heroes: Vietnam, has begun to ship worldwide. Due to the tremendous amount of pre-orders Shrapnel Games has received it may take us several days to get them all out, so please be patient if you have pre-ordered. We've tried to get our shipping clerks to work around the clock and forgo things like food and bathroom breaks, but unfortunately 'labor regulations' and 'workplace safety' stood in our way. Curse you OSHA, curse you!! ANZAC Attack is packed with so much new stuff for your Lock 'N Load experience that it's a wonder we can fit it all in one package. Just take a look at some of what you'll be getting: Over seventy additional counters to add to the mix. And once again we think you'll have a hard time finding better looking counters in a wargame. If we could we'd include tiny frames to hang the counters in, they look that good. New counters means new units! Besides featuring the expansion's namesake you also get new Marine, NVA, and VC units. Squads, mortar teams, AFVs…the only thing missing is the kitchen sink! Hmm, what would the stats on a kitchen sink be? Don't let the bad guys turn your battles into Stalingrad. Included are new rules/markers for using armor to blast away at infantry strongpoints with deadly precision. They'll never know what hit them! Twelve new scenarios highlighting a wide variety of actions, and all guaranteed to keep your tactical mind honed and the fun factor high. Most of the scenarios deal with the ANZAC, while the remainder cover USMC and ARVN actions. Two new maps for your gaming pleasure! If you're one of the few wargamers that has not yet tried this amazing new squad-level system of modern warfare by all means do so at once! You can find a taste of what you can expect from the full game of Lock 'N Load: Forgotten Heroes: Vietnam by downloading the printable demo at http://www.shrapnelgames.com/markhwalker/locknload/LocknLoad_Demo.htm With easy to understand rules, great mechanics and an emphasis on fun, you'll never think of that other squad game again. Available online through Shrapnel Games own store, the Gamers Front (http://www.gamersfront.com), and at better game retailers, ANZAC Attack retails for $29.95. As an expansion ownership of the original game is necessary.
