After several delays Drive to The Baltic, Royal Tank Corps, and Kasserine '43 all should be released in January 2000.

[Ed. note: Uli sent this update in December 1999; check with The Gamers or your favorite wargame retailer for the latest word on what's available.]

Drive covers the Soviet July 1944 offensive to split Army Group North from Center and the German counterattack, code- named "Doppelkopf." The game uses a variant of the Turning the Tables system and comes with one 17" x 22" map and 240 counters.

Royal Tank Corps is Ted Raicer's design of the British Cambrai 1917 offensive and the German counteroffensive. The game uses an area map and low-to-moderate complexity rules. It is the first look at this important battle in twenty years.

Kasserine'43 is the long-awaited game on "Unternehmen Fruehlingswind" in Tunisia. It uses a refined version of the popular Triumphant Fox/Piercing the Reich system and includes one map and 360 counters. Design by Dirk Blermemann.

Games in Development

We are currently working on the following games:

Streets of Stalingrad 3rd edition. We hope to release this classic monster game at Origins in July. The map area has been enlarged so you now have three maps and more than 2,000 5 / 8" counters. The game system is pretty simple so you are able to concentrate on actual game play.

Tank Commander: North Africa 1940/41. Tank Commander isn't dead! However, the game series now is strictly noncollectible. Everything for two players is in one box: rules, two ten-sided dice and 220 cards representing Italian, British and German tanks, anti-tank guns, infantry squads, equipment and terrain.

Operation Mars. John Desch is designing a game on this battle using the Ring of Fire system.

Velikiye Luki. Dirk Blennemann is working on a game on this battle using the Turning the Tables 2.0 rules.

Ted Raicer is designing a 1914 campaign in the west game. It will be of moderate complexity and have two full-sized maps and 560 counters. Later he will take a look at the Eastern Front in 1914 (East Prussia, Poland, Galicia, Serbia).
