On Boxes & Cards

Just two notes regarding my slight component complaints.

I just heard back from DoW that they plan to address the packaging issue for future M44 expansions.

I've also read (on BGG or the DoW forums, I'm not sure wish), that they're considering the issue of cards describing the different new terrains.

Re: On Boxes & Cards

Thanks Shannon for the review! I'm an avid Memoir '44 fan and think it is easily one of the fastest, most enjoyable, and replayable games out there.

This sounds like a well-designed addition, and I'm pleased to hear that the actual scenarios with the game are excellent!

Shannon, I just want to say your reviews ROCK SOCKS!!!

Alright, I am a huge fan of Memoir '44. But all I have is the original. I want to get an expansion, but I am not sure what to get. My favorite looking for miniatures and game play is the Eastern Front.

Since I can't really afford more than one or two things (they are SOOOO overpriced) I just wanted to know what you guys thought would be good to buy to enjoy it the most.

Thanks!

I'd get the Air Pack, because it has the new coherent terrain lists & scenarios. You'll get at least some new scenarios that you can play with the basic components (or fake pretty easily) and it'll be a good guide for what to get next. Here's my Air Pack review:

The Eastern Front is surely another excellent option.
