Up Close Profile of TOTALER KRIEG Co-Game Designer and Developer, Alan Emrich.The critics raved about Krieg!
"Krieg! is a game where the complexity lies in the play of the game rather than the learning of the game. The components are excellent and the rules are complete."
-Paper Wars magazine
"Krieg!'s greatest merit is that it really does simulate World War II on the military, diplomatic, and economic levels but is, at the same time, highly accessible and playable on your kitchen table in a weekend. Buy Krieg! if you've never played a World War II strategic game. Buy it if you've played any of the others and want to see an entirely novel and elegant treatment of the war in all aspects. Buy Krieg! if you want a World War II game that will replay differently every time you set it up and challenge you to see war as more than just combat factor bean counting.
-Berg's Review of Games
"It is hard to point at a single mechanic that makes Krieg! so outstanding. This is definitely a case of the sum being greater than the parts! To fully appreciate its nuance and variety, Krieg! must be played repeatedly. That's exactly what our group did. We've pushed around a lot of cardboard over the years, but for the first time in a long time we found a game that each of us just had to own. Krieg! has made wargaming fun around here again
-Zone of Control magazine as it appeared in The General
But we wanted to give you more: TOTALER KRIEG! (Total War!)
Now the good time, rock 'n roll panzer pushing board game of the 90s has been tuned to vroom for the 21st century. While the classic core game systems remain pure and playable, we've added more of what you wanted. More Option cards, more variations, more game pieces, more scenarios (including several one-map and tournament scenarios), more optional rules, more examples, a comprehensive rules index, improved graphics, extensive players and designers notes, and we've added something really special .
Included inside is the complete Dice of Decision module, a Random Campaign Game generator that gets you rolling through 25 years of European history in a mere matter of minutes to create an almost unlimited number of alternate What if? World War 2 starting situations. What if Germany or Russia triumphed in WW1? What if a German Democracy started WW2? What if France or Italy (or even Germany) were communist countries? What if there was no Russian Civil War? Or Red Army purges? Or if the Western Allies were ready to fight? Or if Germany was prepared for a long war? It's all here, plus whole lot more!
TOTALER KRIEG! is a 2nd edition redesign that extends the boundaries of Steve Kosakowski's classic KRIEG! game that takes players one step further. With complete online support (featuring players House Rules and several articles-all for free), co-designer & developer Alan Emrich promises you that, "Owning Totaler Krieg! is as close as it gets to being set for life in gaming." Enjoy a proven winner. Enjoy Totaler Krieg!
