D-Day Omaha Beach First hours...

Sorry to derail your excellent AAR gehrig38. Looking forward to more as I am interested in this game as well.

One question: do you find all the symbols on the map detract from the game/map or do you just see through them once you start playing?

I honestly don't even notice them in VASSAL. Now playing RAF: Lion as well and that map is just as busy. Think our imaginations allow us (at least me) to just think on the combat and the history and not get caught up in aesthetics with good games.

I agree with you there, when the game is good.

This is an excellent game.  And I love that Decision Games support Vassal for it.  I have not seen a vassal module for the Tarawa game yet...hopefully they are planning one.  No clipping with vassal....

This inspires me to finish my dormant AAR on this game as well.

I've not once clipped my game counters. Not once.

I didn't even know this was a thing until I joined this site, TBH.

At first I thought you were all crazy, but now I'm actually considering doing it. I've already got enough OCD in my life, but I really don't need more, though.

Don't join the ranks of the crazy! Keep those corners as they are, man. They were meant to be square. Avoid this bizarre counter Eugenics program so many have joined.

Oh no. Please don't drag videos into this thread. gehrig38 will never get to finish his AAR at this rate.  ::)

Great AAR. I must get this at some point.

Has anyone played both Omaha and the latest game? If so which do you prefer\is best?
