Oh, Pierre, I popped your blog link to Alex Macris (of Modern SH co-authorship & NY Wargames when Arty first wrote SH), he says they're cracking models :)

OK thanks Nathan.

Played a few games with John Moher, the other MSH co-author, over the years and got some pretty good insights into their design methodology.....I know SH etc has its issues for some folks but I have yet to play a game of SH/MSH that I did not enjoy, be it was won or lost.

Yeah, it's not everyone's cup of tea but it's a bloody good game and is pretty much spot on for what it's modelling!

We've had a bit of traffic on the Autarch Discord about it (well, mainly me tbh :D) so thought I'd mention your recent stuff on the way past, as it were ;)

I've spoken to John on email a couple times, and on the old SH Yahoo Group ofc - ace to get a chance to play the game with him!

Don't think John was involved in this particular series of actions, played in 2004 (that long ago?!?  :o) when we played battles based round SPI's 5th Corps boardgame:

but we did play a similarly large game in 2007 with his involvement based around the defence of Alsfeld, but can't drege up the report on that one.
