GMT Game

[edit]

There is a GMT game also called "The Thirty Years War" - a strategic CDG similar-ish to "Paths of Glory". It came out just over 20 years ago. I own a copy but have never actually played it. Paulturtle (talk) 17:39, 9 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Breitenfeld

[edit]

Pretty sure there was also a fifth game using the same system (sold separately) on Gustavus' great victory over Tilly at the Battle of Breitenfeld (1631). I think Nicholas Palmer mentions it in his 1977 book if a citation is needed. Paulturtle (talk) 17:47, 9 July 2022 (UTC) Have added this in. Don't want to tread on anybody's toes but equally don't just want to mouth off on the talk page!Paulturtle (talk) 18:21, 13 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the notice. After doing a bit of research, I have added Breitenfield to the article, and plan on a new article for it was well. Guinness323 (talk) 23:25, 14 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I hadn't realised that Breitenfeld predated the actual Quad (I'd assumed, incorrectly, that it was a sequel) so we've both learned.Paulturtle (talk) 06:27, 15 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
