Trust me...this isn't a bad stacking picture at all. I'll never forget the picture of the piles and piles of deep stacks for PWG's Korsun Pocket that was played at CSW Expo many years ago. It was SCARY!!!

Does anybody lament the loss of the WINTER STORM series? I remember when I got my copy of the original WINTER STORM--I think it was put out by Vanguard Games orginally. For me, a gamer who had learned about the Stalingrad counteroffensive from SPI...
How realistic is it that this game will be republished? I have the old original and agree it's an epic - one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had. Also have NES's Killing Ground and would agree that this is an ideal format for a reprint.
GMT also did a great job on the remake of Avalon Hill's game, SUCCESSORS. While I've not played it, people I know that have played both versions like what GMT did with it. Haven't seen nor played Mayfair Games' 3d Edition remake of the venerable G...
