Anyone looked at or played, "Lock and Load: Band of Heroes?"
Looks like my kind of game -- a board game that you can play by tcip or e-mail. And it has pretty small units for those of us with simple minds.

I'm thinking seriously of buying this thing. The markers are beautiful, and the rules don't seem so complex only John can understand them. :) Come on Koz, John, Biill, or whoever, lets give it a go, unless someone knows something bad about it.

I'm one step ahead of you -- I have it on order at my local hobby shop. The counters are drop dead gorgeous and I've heard the rules are fast and furious. I'll be your first opponent if you wish. I'm not sure how online play works since it's a board game, but I'm sure we can figure out this VASSAL thing.

I'm going to do a quick search around here to see if I can find it cheaper; if not, I'll order it before the weeks out. Good thing you'll have yours first because then you can explain the rules to me. lol! Surely, Koz won't be able to resist!

I always like to support the local stores if you can find it. Mine has thus far been unsuccessful in obtaining copies of it from Matrix.
The Cheapest place I have seen it is NWS Online. They have it for $59 http://store.yahoo.com/yhst-12000246...nlobaofhe.html I have purchased from them many times. When/if I get it I will definitely give you a shout! :)

Koz, I'll call you -- this is the game I was telling you about a few weeks back. Check out the sequence of play that Soldier attached. I really like the alternating impulse style sequence of play -- it's an enhancement over ASL in that aspect. It gives the battlefield more of a simultaneous feel to it.

OK, I just ordered my copy from the company Norad recommended. It should arrive next week. It turns out my hobby shop was unable to order it.
