If you don't know who they are, take my word for it - they have designed a LOT of miniatures and war games. I asked their opinions of the game and it very much mirrors my own - it is a great game for folks first getting into WWII. For you grognards though it might have some "gamey" aspects that don't sit well. By "gamey" I mean tactics available or that are attractive in the game that would be counterproductive or suicidal on the battlefield. Still we all agreed the game is very attractive and is a boon for the hobby. We saw a lot of 40K folks picking it up.I'll certainly be picking up a bushel load of these minis though. I enjoy playing WW2 games, just hate painting tanks - a perfect fit for me!</blockquote>
