A friend pointed me to this interesting site (see below, it immediately caught my attention with the novel use of egg timers next to the counter bases):
The scenarios looked appealing:
- The Battle of Luethen
- A Special Forces "smash and grab" from a train behind enemy lines
- A successful Viking raid is confronted with a Saxon Shieldwall between it and its longship home
- A Three Musketeers "look out for your friends" escapade
Interesting, although I cannot afford the price of the games in their commercial "training" use!
Footnote: I did meet "the timers" game in action at Partisan 2026. Chatting to the guy who organised it and he said he was in touch with the designer. Fairly simple game, use a unit and wait until the timer stops before you can use it next while the battle swirls around you! Quick wins can turn out to be long term losses.
