Struggle for New France
New from Schutze Games. Struggle for New France is an introductory level point-to-point movement wargame covering the Seven Years War (1754-1762), focusing on events occurring in North America as a grand campaign game. Players take on the role of either the governor of New France or the British American colonies as they struggle to conduct a war with the limited resources available and unpredictable support both locally and from home as determined by their separate decks of 31 event cards. Price: $43.
First Strike '62
New from Schutze Games. First Strike ‘62 is Bruce Costello’s new design using the First Strike system, covering the Cuban Missile Crisis when both sides relied on heavy bomber forces. Using historically accurate strategic (ie Nuclear) force structures the players will be responsible for fighting the war on a global scale when the diplomats fail. Price: $58.

Obscure Battles in the Spotlight
CSW member, Jeff Barry, has created the new blogsite, Obscure Battles. This blog features detailed descriptions (including highly detailed maps and precise, unit-by-unit orders of battle) for lesser known battles. Battles covered so far include Mollwitz 1741, Chotusitz 1742, Soor 1745 and Durnstein 1805. The author would love to get some reaction from fellow CSW members. Each submission proposes interesting “what ifs” to test in a wargame, as well as special tactical features of each battle that the author feels would be interesting to analyze.
