Michael Barnes once called this game "this year's MANOEUVRE."
I don't know what that means, because I don't speak Wargamese.

The tournament didn't go precisely as planned, but it did go and all things considered went very well. Mike Smith-Stoe won the Championship with a record of 2-1 and a Kill Ratio of 12-10. It all went down to the final game, in which his Austrians eked out a Nightfall win against Matt's Americans.
One of the tournament rules was that nobody could play the same nation twice. That made things very interesting for the players, many of whom were trying nations they had never played.

I met up with my friends again and we made up three of the four players in the Manoeuvre three-game tournament. It was a close one. Two of us had 2-1 wins and the other two ended 1-2. In the end the decision came down to kill ratio. Lucky for me I had eliminated at least one more unit in my previous plays. So I came out on top. The funny thing is that the other player with 2 wins was

who had taught me the game.
Everyone won a copy of the game. I also got a Manoeuvre mug, which I will have to be sure to drink from at all of our future game nights.

This is the week that was...
7 Wonders 3
Combat Commander: Europe 1
Combat Commander: Pacific 1
King Philip's War 1
Manoeuvre 1
Scrabble 1
Slamwich 1
Manoeuvre gets the nod as this week's highlight game because I was reminded how much I liked this game this week with my serendipitous game session this week (my Prussians won 7-5 vs my friend's Russians at the end of the day).
Not much else to add at the moment. More tomorrow.

I got Manoeuvre at SaltCon. It seemed pretty fun and accessible so I wanted to give it a try. The nice thing about this game is that it has enough components in the box to play four two-player games at the same time. We had three contests playing simultaneously. Ellen, Mark, Bryce, Rick and Jim all greatly enjoyed the game. Ellen added it to her wish list. Even Shaea, who frequently lamented her cards, agreed it was worth another try.
Game One
Ellen's British defeated Shaea's French 8-7 at nightfall.
Game Two
Jim's Russians defeated Rick's Prussians 7-5 also at nightfall.
Game Three
Mark's Spanish defeated Bryce's Austrians 8-3 at nightfall.

Although the components quality doesn't look impressive, the game play sounds fun.. I'm a little worried about how much luck of the dice will control the game.

This is a bit of stretch on the simulation part and I'm a bit reluctant to add it. It does however meet the critera of War + Euro mechanic. In this case its the Napoleanic Wars with a cool area control and card play. Playable in about 30/45 minutes a game.

This game comes in a green box. That's pretty much the best I've got for a St. Patrick's Day wargame. I'm sure there are better suggestions than this.

This one is very simple to learn. The rule book is very small and light. It has 8 armies in which are all unique. It is a great 2 player game with plenty of depth and strategy. And it travels very very well. Oh - and no dice
Enjoy. I do.
Edit: Sorry typo. I meant no mice

Played this against my wife (as the British) against me (as the Prussians). Possibly due to my wife's misunderstanding of what she could play during an attack at the start, and certainly due to her poorer positioning, I was ahead 4-1 by the midgame, with a much better position. I'd been killing her weaker units which came back to haunt me.
She finally got to the better part of her deck, and started doing some better coordinated attacks, and I wasted a lot of time surrounding a dug-in unit (8 + 3 (redoubt) + 2 (on hill) + 4 combat leader played in defense) only to see the five dice I was able to muster come up with 1,2,2,3,4 (4d8s + 1d10) added to my five strength unit for a "No Effect" draw. Sigh. She then chased around a couple of my units and finally eliminated my fifth unit and won the game, 5-4. A good comeback, and one that made her excited to play the game again. This time we'll not let so much time elapse with this ruleset so that she doesn't have to re-absorb it all.

I played this with my father for the first time today. When I was a kid, we played games like Chess and checkers, and I think the 8x8 board helped sell the game.
 We have played euroes and light wargames A&A D-day before, but in some ways this was a better gaming experience for both of us. The game was fairly easy to explain, and we had a pretty even game. I think we will play it again.
I was actually looking to trade Manoeuvre, but now I think I'll hold on to it for a while.
I still think it takes a bit too long for what it is, but that might be because I always play it vs. new opponents.

Dustin and I played this second. It was extremely close with ties in VP and destroyed units (4 each). I had one exhausted unit to his none giving him the victory. He played France while I was the Ottoman Empire. I really enjoy this game and we need to get it to the table more often.
