This game, the second in the Victory in the West

Stonewall (S&T 67)
Prelude to GBACW |
The Stonewall game has always been a crowd
favorite - and one of the earliest examples of SPI taking a great
monster rules set and bringing it down to a small scenario. This one
takes on TSS, and creates a knife's edge scenario that
keeps both sides on the edge of their seat! This Replay is a huge
help as well, though, because first time players can be a little
uncertain of what the game is all about, and Bickford's talk through
will help people get started! Roughly 12 turns. |

Terrible Swift Sword (1st Ed.) |
Wow - this replay will show WHY the original
TSS was such a hit with everyone. The beauty of the game map
and pieces is one part of it, and that is showcased in these
pictures. The incredible action the game offers is the other reason.
This replay starts fast and delivers a punch every turn as the
desperate Union forces try to stop the rampaging Rebels in their
surge toward Cemetery Hill. Watch the first day unfold in this GREAT
effort! |
