Ochi: The Italian Invasion of Greece, 1940

[JayTownsend]

Sure, if you have questions on Ochi, just email me.

I am not sure if you were responding to me Jay but please note I will not be the developer for Ochi. In fact, I will not develop or playtest anything in 2021 because I will focus on playing games from my collection.

[JayTownsend]

Sorry Danial, I thought you were posting to me. I am happy for you. Playing is better than developing/working.

Jay, has the counter mix been finalized?

[JayTownsend]

It has been Peter. Mike had me come up with 176 new counters, the rest come from Crete and Conquest of Ethiopia. AP/Mike has had the completed- submitted pack for over a year.

Looking Forward to:

Now that it is into July, next year doesn't seem that far off, to seeing Brazilians battling Axis forces in the mountains of Italy and the Greeks and Italians having a bloodbath in the mountains of Albania & Greece!

One thing I notcied over the years I worked on The Italian-Greek War, was the Italian Regia Aeronautica lost 229 airmen but the Greek and British were double this, a tribute to the skills of the Italian airmen. Kind of an interesting side-show, that hardly gets notices in WWII Air Wars.
 
Hopefully we will see the Game supplement in the not too far future.

Would someone please enlighten me on why I should order a new game if it requires pieces from an out of print game?

Since as yet, there is no game, what do you mean? No requirements have been specified.

You have a general point there. In this case though there is nothing finalized and by the time it is ready to go, the out of print titles may well be back in print, or the counters needed from them *may* be in some as yet un announced game or the counters may be brought into the game itself. With APL there are so many ways to move counters around or build out new games, you really have to wait till everything is out to print and then re-evaluate.
