Random Friday Wargaming: Central Command (S&T)

Another Kamps design for S&T, Central Command: Superpower Confrontation in the Straits of Hormuz keeps having relevance today.







Believe it or not, I can't find a CSW thread on this one. If you know of one, point it out!

I must say that every Friday I anticipate the Random Wargame posts.

I have S&T's Central Command, also unpunched. It is on my "still to try" list along with "Light Division"

Reminds me of a little of Gulf Strike, from Victory Games/Avalon Hill.

I played this one until the counters got worn, Back In The Day. A lot of very good ideas and no small amount of tension as each side hangs on by just that little bit!

I also have Light Division (same area, by a different designer) and want to give it a try. I believe it is a lightened-up version of a game Austin Bay and maybe JF Dunnigan did for the Army; can anyone corroborate?

Crap. I guess I better keep 'em coming, huh? ;)

Sounds like a vote of confidence to me!

Yes, there's plenty of material and even when showcasing your own designs on your birthday. I'd like to see an "Orange Crush" RWF.
