A New Edition!

Chain of Command 2nd Edition!

TFL has announced that they will be releasing a 2nd Edition of Chain of Command! Or CoC2. I’m not sure of the exact naming format. This is great news. While Chain of Command is our favourite game, it could use some work.

We’ve been house-ruling some aspects of the rules already. Mortars are an issue. 20mm cannon fire is less useful than a .50 cal, which is an issue. The use of red dice, from the 1940 Blitzkreig supplement, is inspired and should be used for other areas.

Guess what? TFL is polishing up the rules to reflect their later releases, clarify confusing rules, capture lessons from the forum, and I am very excited. The first rule-set was very much a work of passion. Now TFL is a more mature company and I’m looking forward to play the 2nd Edition when it arrives!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas from Vancouver Island! It’s lightly raining on the South Island and quite lovely out.

As you can see from the kleenex box we’re having some seasonal colds (what a fine gift to share with family)! Despite that I had a nice glass of port and took that photo to share with you all.

I hope you’re all enjoying time with your family in whatever tradition you follow.
