Title: Finally, after all these years....
Post by: Easy E on June 11, 2025, 10:52:27 am
After three (possibly more) years of having it on my radar to buy, I finally picked up a hard back copy of Victory at Sea from Warlord.  I now expect a new edition in about 3-6 months. 

I also got a copy of Mike Hutchinson's new Pacific Command from Osprey as well.  The pictures inside use Warlord minis. 

This time around, I skipped minis as I can use paper templates for now.  Eventually, maybe I will get some GHQ minis. It depends on if I can get anyone else around these parts interested.

Hah! You know, now that you mention it, V@S is probably about due for a new edition. However, I haven't seen or heard any rumors of that.

Another edition is not the worst case scenario... I have had too many games dropped after I bought in to count, not to mention companies folding.  I backed the Firestorm Galaxy Kickstarter at 11, went to sleep dreaming about new ships, and then got the Spartan closure email the next morning on the way to work.  :(

True.  With rumors swirling about Warlord's future, I could also see it being dropped. 

However, that is less of a problem for me now because i have the rules and no one can take them away. 

Edition changes are worse because no one wants to play old rules, but they will play dead ones? 

It is a strange world we live in, but it is true!
