So, as we enter the new year (and let's hope our Mayan friends were wrong about it being the last year), what wargames do you presently have on preorder?

As for myself, I currently have seven games/expansions on preorder, which constitutes an all time personal high (and also reflects the corrosive influence of the denizens of this subdomain, with all this talk of this game and that). They are:

Commands & Colors: Napoleonics Expansion #2: The Austrian Army
Commands & Colors: Napoleonics Expansion #3: The Prussian Army
Commands & Colors: Napoleonics Expansion #4: The Russian Army
FAB: Sicily
Space Empires: Close Encounters
Barbarossa Army Group South, 1941
Korea: The Forgotten War

The first three represent my addiction to all things Commands & Colors. The Space Empires expansion is remarkable in that I haven't even punched the base game yet. The last two are directly attributable to me reading too many glowing posts regarding both the East Front series and the OCS series.

So, what pre-orders do you have on order as we begin 2012? This thread is meant strictly as a list of games on formal preorder, as opposed to simply all games you are looking forward to in 2012. Apologies in advance if in fact such a list has already been done. I looked but couldn't find one, but that may have more to do with my lousy search skills than anything else.

Numerous items from MMP which may or may not see the light in 12'. A similar selection as Leo from GMT with FAB: Sicily arriving on the last day of 11'.

It's a good thing the universe won't conspire to have all those games charge at one time. If it did you could hit us up for care packages of food, rent, ect. but at the same time you would have a lot of cool new games.

Peter takes the prize ...

I have just one, Saints in Armor, but have my eye on a rather large number of 2012 planned releases. More than I normally do. I have a feeling that it will be a good year.

I think that's what the Mayans were predicting for 2012.

I have World at War: Into the Breach, World at War: America Conquered, and Lock 'N Load: Forgotten Heroes; Vietnam 2 on pre-order. Best thing that happened to me this year wargame wise was finding a regular opponent. Second best thing was discovering the World at War series by LnL.

As opposed to the people waiting for Total War (myself included)?
