If you take this campaign the Soviets have to win a fair few more games than the Germans or they lose. If you have two equally skilled players and no Firestorm troops I think the Germans would win most of the time. It also adds in a lot of tactics for the Germans to carefully use their troops which to me seems historical and fun!<br /><br />I can recommend this campaign and the Market Garden one having played them both. I also think Firestorm Caen and the new St, Lo one when it comes out would be great for a weekender (in fact I'm playing St. Lo as a campaign weekend here at a LGS). Also firestorm Lorraine is a great one for 8 players to do in a day if you can get 4 games in each.<br /><br />benBenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07727751389191052408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-504019008093553470.post-15145254167972539972014-06-27T01:11:08.665+01:002014-06-27T01:11:08.665+01:00Cool.

I'd like to do a Normandy campaign. Maybe the firestorm.<br /><br />Do you find the firestorm troops unfairly unbalance the games? I'd be curious to hear by the end what you think of them. Seems like a big advantage to get some of the platoons!Cameronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02145798538758316372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-504019008093553470.post-41716869603112359112014-06-26T21:50:08.659+01:002014-06-26T21:50:08.659+01:00Thanks Cam.

We are now doing it adhoc for a few weeks as we are all quite busy in July, but I dare say come August we'll have a few more weekend meet ups.<br /><br />BenBenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07727751389191052408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-504019008093553470.post-54019002903994284112014-06-26T13:29:13.664+01:002014-06-26T13:29:13.664+01:00I love reading about firestorm campaigns, someday ...I love reading about firestorm campaigns, someday I am going to do one myself!
