Not sure which is more impressive. That you can get you wife to play Maneouver, or that she can win with the Spanish!
...Or that someone is able to play with those small cards and flimpsy boards
We mounted the boards on illustrator board so they are nice and thick now. The cards are still tiny.
I have a plexiglas sheet to lay on top of the maps once the boards are set up. This comes in handy for a number of other games, Crusader Rex and Hammer of Scots for example. Any way I could overlook many game problems if my wife played more games like Manoeuvre with me. Have fun!
