As you can see the table looks great. This version of the game uses the WW2 ruleset Disposable Heroes, which were written by Keith Stine. Keith's also the gentleman putting on the game at Cold Wars so at least there will be no rules disputes as you'll have the author at the table.
The game has a very interesting activation structure where each side is given a number of activation chits and during a turns the sides alternate actions were a chit is used to allow a squad/fire team to do 3 actions. It can move 3x (3 inches each), shoot 3x or combinations of those and other actions. A player can activate the same squad multiple times in a turn so it's really interesting and forces you hard decisions on what to do each turn. I'm sure I'm not explaining it well but I really liked the mechanic. It provides a very nice ebb and flow for tactical action and avoids the alpha strike issue one can experience in more traditional I go / you go type games.
I had never played the rules before but was able to pick them up after the second activation, that makes these really good for a convention game.
I think the people who have signed up for this game at Cold Wars are in for a real treat.
