The Dark Sands (GMT Games)
p500 $38, MSRP $55 – made the cut

Ted Racier strikes again!  He’s taking his East front campaign system from The Dark Valley and dropping it into North Africa.  You get to refight the dramatic 2 years of back-and-forth warfare between Cairo and Tunis at the operational level, with a focus on combat and planning.  Notably, the GMT copy on their promotional material pokes fun at a certain well-known North Africa game with a heavy logistical focus.  Meanwhile, you’ve got a highly solo-friendly game that spans a grand campaign from a designer we all love and a company that churns ass-kicking products.  Got get your order in before you can’t get the p500 price anymore.
