I do agree, but I would go further to say do not even bother picking up the new stuff. The new stuff I did pick up are:
Hell on Earth 1 and 2, this is a revised version of the Devils Domain kursk stuff. The maps have been revised
with much less grain to f*ck up the map as it was a problem in the old version. Still for 60 bucks with discount, it is a ripoff, You just get scenarios and "a map" (IE map panels). No counters.
Jerusalem Siege: Being that I am a glutton for punishment but do find the Arab Israeli wars so fascinating I picked up JS, With discount it is probably around 60 bucks. All you get are The maps for the city of Jerusalem, 8 scenarios and a CG No counters, you need Gen 48 (or some incarnation of that module) to use JS. Not worth it unless your hot for AIW stuff.
Genisis III: I primarily wanted the Counters from this one just because my counters from Genisis II were like an inch thick. What RT did here was split Gen III into two over priced modules, with Gen III I think you get 12 scenarios that use new maps (included in Gen III) and counters. To get the rest of the module you need to buy Palestinian Invasion (which even I passed on) There are two more follow on modules, one is Uzies war which takes place in 1967 and the is Megagok or some such name which takes place in 1973. All are dependent on each other to play and if your not an AIW fanatic, then I would pass on them.
As a side Note, if you like AIW stuff, your best bet is to find Gen 48 (the original, but the counters are awful)
Thunder at Melikhovo: Hill 216 Nord: The map for this one is super nice But the counter sheets included were fucked up, some were fieldgrue, some blue, some Russians were brown some close to orange and at the price he was asking even with discount was kind of a ripoff, but I am a glutton for punishment and my material weakness is your gain as I offer my thoughts on this shit.
Bitter Tag Push to Hannut 1940: Who can resist a France 1940 action? I cant unfortunately but for 49 bucks, the maps are nice and do include a nice set of armor counters. This is basically Gembloux the Faint but with a historical map no CG. Scenarios are just revised versions of the Gembloux scenarios. Once more, if you do not mind the usual ch screw ups and spending $$, then this is for you.
Lastly, I did buy
CH Annual 4( CH version of Korea) only to find that it uses CH NKPA versions of the nationality vs what MMP put out. So be warned that this Annual does not support MMP's KWASL stull plus it uses its own maps.
As usual: BUYER BEWARE ON ALL CH PRODUCTS!
Mark
You have done a great job/service with your web site thus far, I think almost no one would really "miss" reviews of every CH product.
Just list what is "new" from CH and leave it at that.
Thanks!!
