[QUOTE="Summer-Knight925, post: 5688303, member: 80297"] Very interesting. I think the rules debate comes down to the player, some like the freedom (I sure do) while some like every variable accounted for in the rules. And as a stunt I once played a game of Kriegspiel, very fun, sure I won, but the game lasted 4 weeks, sure it was an entire military campaign, but proving that it is impossible for the US to be invaded was fun... this included the nuclear options and use of modern defenses I was, however, given the option of an insurgency...needless to say, the 2nd amendment right is a great thing, embrace the firearm, China can send an army as large as our population, but as soon as they hit the great plains, their numbers turn against them. It turned into trench warfare and yeah, very VERY fun game, enjoyed it quite a bit. **Note it was a 'modern' kriegspiel that involved not a chess board but a map of the US as well as the world. Pieces moved as realistically as possible (infantry moved different than armored units and they all moved differently to air units) [/QUOTE]
