THE WORLD UNDONE (TWU) is a new operational, division level WW 1 system inspired by the brilliant late John Young’s The Marne. What results is an extremely simple, nuanced, and quick playing, immersive simulation of the first big German victories of WW1. Play is broken down into a simple Move-Combat-Move-Combat phase for each side, with units participating in the first combat phase unable to move or fight during the second. The game covers August 13 to September 13th covering both the battles of Tannenberg and the Masurian Lakes. Separate CRTs are used for German and Russian forces to reflect differences in quality and doctrine. This is an extremely low complexity game that I hope will be able to draw new players into wargaming, and remind old players why they started gaming in the first place. The World Undone will be a 3 part series covering East Prussia, Galicia and the Western Front (maybe Serbia/Austria too).

Victory is determined through a simple Clausewitz-inspired Victory Point ratio system determined by control of towns, important objectives, and casualties. Scenarios cover Tannenberg, Masurian Lakes, and a ‘Campaign game covering both operations. Variants allow for additional replacements to change the balance of things. The Russian player can win automatically by taking Konigsberg, while the German player can win automatically by eliminating a percentage of Russian SP. Players can combine the Galicia, East Prussia and Serbia Games together to simulate the entire Eastern Front in 1914.

SCALE: 1 day turns, 2-3000 men per SP, 7.2 Kilometer hexes (4.5 miles)

Mars La Tour is an introductory-level wargame with plenty of meat on the bone for the seasoned grognard, inspired by Mark Herman’s recent Gettysburg. With a 17x11 large-hex map, less than 32 large counters, players can experience the furious battle of Mars la Tour in less than a half-hour, easily played several times in one sitting. The OOB and order of appearances are tweaked for historical effect, representing the French at the corps level with some of their less aware forces starting off-map, while Prussians are represented at the division level with their normal historical appearance.

We Were Not Cowards is an operational simulation of the last battle of the Second Empire. It uses a rules-engine heavily inspired by The Library of Napoleonic Battles rules by the illustrious Kevin Zucker and OSG. Several scenarios allow for a quicker french response to Prussian Maneuvers the day before creating a salvageable situation for the French. Each hex is approximately 1KM and units are divisions which can break down into their subordinate brigades. Maintaining a chain of command allows players to freely act with their units, while units outside of command range must rely on initiative. Special rules are included for French Chassepot and Mitraileuse and the obliterating power of Prussian Krupp artillery.

This is game is the first of several efforts to see games our heroic CEO designed a few years ago that have sat languishing among other ideas, priorities and projects. This will include a 22x34” map, 560 0.5 inch counters, several player aids along with 2 rule books.

1916: Verdun is a brutal game of attrition, maneuver and administration. Players each command numerous divisions and must judiciously burn resources in order to outlast their opponent.

1864: On To Jutland covers one of the 19th century’s least known conflicts, a brutal struggle for Schleswig and the Jutland peninsula as Denmark attempts to retain her holdings in Germany. The game is a quick playing, no-frills simulation which uses an odds-based Combat Result Table and Artillery Fire Table with a d10 roll to process combat. Headquarters can allow units to stack at greater limits and provide a little fog-of-war. Finally, a what-if option allows for Swedish intervention on the Danish side, as they had prepared around 30,000 volunteers to do so but it never came to fruition.

The World Undone: West Front will be a monster game covering the entire 1914 campaign on the Western Front from the outbreak on August 4th, to the end of the Race to the Sea on October 19th. Scenarios are included for all of the other battles/phases of the campaign. West Front will be the largest of the World Undone games and rules will be included to combine this game with the others along with variants for the Schlieffen plan, along with ‘Schlieffen goes East’. Each unit is represented at a division scale, so this is truly a massive game, but one that plays really quickly. The World Undone benefits from its super-simple turn structure and mechanics which allow players to not get overwhelmed by the size of the conflict and focus on maneuver.

Guns of the Americas is a strategic scale hypothetical that examines what a renewed conflict between the states would look like during the first world war. The history behind the game is that the South manages to win a truce during the Civil War and the USA remains divided up until WW1. The North allies with Germany while the South allies with the Entente (the rationale being both the ethnic makeup and trading relationships of both regions). The North must execute a Schliffen-like plan to take out the south before they can coordinate fully with their Canadian and Mexican allies.

The game includes units for the USA, CSA, Germany, Japan, France, Canada and Mexico. 2 large maps depict north America from Mexico City to Quebec. The game’s mechanics are derived and inspired from Mark Simonitch’s The US Civil War while introducing several new ideas and layers of complexity such as Naval and Air operations as well as card assisted mechanics. I designed this game a while ago for a AAA company but got the title back when I started CSL, and have been working to improve and refine the game since. I want to make this the modern day Invasion America from ye old SPI and our first real “monster game”.

The fifth installment of the Procedural Combat Series sees a return to historical conflict in another one of the cold war’s most iconic campaigns. A well trained, well-armed, but unprepared Israel must defend herself against a horde of multinational coalition of Arab Governments bent on her destruction. 1973 features a highly mobile campaign with a realistic treatment of air operations. Some support units are included in the OOB as to give players a chance to experience how new weapons systems for the time had an impact on the battlespace. Moving the PCS series to a desert environment gives Mech and Motorized troops a huge level of freedom in terms of maneuver.
