RE: Panzer Lehr and laser cut counters.
The main reason I ordered Panzer Lehr was to see how the laser cutting worked out, and I think laser cutting was specifically mentioned as part of the press material for it. I have no problems with that experiment not working out for me personally. With Kursk, however, I feel like it was a really late decision in the process without giving me the chance to see the results with Lehr.
I won't complain too much because it's AP's thing, they can steer the ship as they see fit. I personally would have preferred die-cut counters knowing what I do now with Lehr, and for 99% of the time I'd known about Kursk, that's what I expected.
For me, the scorch marks are worse that corner nubs only because I clip my counters, but again, I realize all of this is my personal preference. Anyway, I'm sure the game itself will be very solid, but I have my particularities concerning the aesthetics.
