BFP 3 Blood and Jungle Scenario Locations Map

Rick went through and used Google maps to show where the scenarios that are included in BFP 3 Blood and Jungle take place.

There are only 41 since a number of the scenarios take place in the same location.

If YOU were in a Game Designing Team....

I think my main demand for inclusion would be if the map uses hexes, then the pieces should be hex shaped, not square. Another one would be to make the hexes on the map a little bigger, even though this would make the map bigger, but it sur… Continue

Fiction As Wargame--Does it Work?

These are wargames built around a book, TV show, or fictional movie.

The big question is--did they work?

Now, I'm not talking about taking something like the film KELLY'S HEROES and building a Lock 'N Load scenario, ASL scen… Continue
