Screenshot from VASSAL-module of the Polar Storm game showing part of the play area and units.
Playing Polar Storm (2024) #wargame on Autumn 1944 Soviet operation against Germans in what is now border region between Norway and Russia (used to be part of Finland). Game is from Swedish 3CG and we are playing at VASSAL. Screenshot is from turn 3. So far working well.

Hey look what I just got!
I’ve heard lots of nice things about Battlegroup Clash from one of its playtesters. Who I know is also pretty knowledgeable about the topic it simulates.
AFAIK this is the commercial version of a game the British Army uses.

We do have speeding tickets based on income and there have been some pretty high tickets (six figures) in the past. But true, we use km/h speed and Euros as currency.

Winter War is the story of the Soviet onslaught on tiny Finland from November 1939 to March 1940, at the beginning of WW2. Can the Finns hold beyond the reasonable and receive the long awaited Allied ...
I've agreed with Avalon Digital to design a new digital wargame for them with the working title of Estonia 2028. It will use their SGS system, and I'm going to go big on multi domain effects.
In the meantime I can recommend another SGS game I've been enjoying: Winter War share.google/bR5dazTVXGMk...

I would second this entry. This War of Mine is something different. With expansions game gets even more serious by introducing kids, pets etc.

In the end game felt short on describing the campaign. Used system didn't match with the scale, supply and movement was too easy and overall game didn't give feeling on fighting the Continuation War. Mandatory attack (which has caused some discussion in BGG) was weird, but not the biggest problem.
