Gentlemen of Table E. The first game on table when we return to face to face club gaming will be Gulf Strike. The membership having voted that this "mega game" has been such a success "return."
I repeat that that the complexity of these rules is officially set at "bake your noodle."
The rules and opening deployments are on our Dropbox along with the ammendments we have been working on for the last eighteen months. Please do not disclose the access to this outside.
All maps, including the supplements will be used. The plan as agreed has been to replace the counters with 3mm figures and micro aircraft/ships. It will look spectacular.
Operational map E from the General magazine additional supplement will replace the 1983 original map E.
The 2nd "Flogger strategem" will in play. McGurks third ammendment can also be used.
"Buy in" is strictly on knowledge of the rules, (1983 please, none of your 4th edition ... And you know who you are sir). The game is too complicated for long rules discussions and needs a "press on" attitude. May I point out yet again that my 2nd edition has the commemorative Desert Shield expansion and "Saddam Strike" sticker on the front of the box. Just saying.
Again...
What you will need
If anyone has 3mm scale armour it would be welcome. Questions on Gulf Strike 3D please direct them to Dr P or Captain the Honourable QW, or the Savage McGurk via the blog. None of these gentlemen have the Saddam commemorative edition but all have proved to be keen Strikers over the last few weeks.
Also our thanks again to Master Nellikyn Trollope for reintroducing us to this lost classic.
