Convoluted Games

[JayTownsend]

Where the original PG game system is not so bad as far as a learning curve goes.... I think the "makers/designers" of, say, Saipan just might have steepened that curve. If, for instance, a "gamer" got into the Saipan game AND "took on" the first couple of scenarios... I would have thought that "gamer" would find himself/herself a bit lost in the intricacies of those scenarios, especially if that "gamer" was new to the hobby. I think that would not serve the gamer world very well in the long run. Just sayin'.

Or Gunny, the gamer can ask questions here or over on CSW. Maybe BGG, but I don't visit there as much. Saipan adds Amphibious landings and caves plus a lot of new vehicle/AFV types. Really not that many more rules if you are into the series. the Pacific is a good change up from Western/Eastern/Desert fighting. The maps are gorgeous!
