The Grumman TBM-3 was a torpedo bomber that entered service with the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps in 1942. From the Battle of Midway, to its retirement in the 1960’s, it was recognized as one of the finest torpedo bombers ever produced. Actually manufactured by General Motors, its armament included a 2,000 lb. Mark 13 Torpedo, or 2,000 lbs. of bombs, up to eight 3.5” or 5” Forward firing Rockets, and various 7.62mm M1919 and .50 Browning machine guns. In September 1944, future President George H.W. Bush was shot down in his Avenger, and actor Paul Newman served as a rear gunner in 1945. Using Accurate Miniatures plastic injection molds, Academy has pulled out all stops to recreate this highly popular model. And with the highest quality premium Cartograph decals, this TBM-3 accurately miniaturizes the aircraft that flew from the aircraft carrier USS Bunker Hill (CV-17) during the Invasion of Okinawa on April 5, 1945.

<p>Model Rectifier Corporation is truly excited to announce the early June 2012 release of the 1/48 scale TBM-3”USS Bunker Hill”, WWII carrier based aircraft.

<p>Using Accurate Miniatures plastic injection molds, Academy has pulled out all stops to recreate this highly popular model. And with the highest quality premium Cartograph decals, this TBM-3 accurately miniaturizes the aircraft that flew from the aircraft carrier USS Bunker Hill (CV-17) during the Invasion of Okinawa on April 5, 1945. With over 100 parts, even including a choice of weighted and unweighted tires, details abound! Count the rivets and the marvel at the pristine engraving of the panel lines, and enjoy the cockpit detail, landing gear and extraordinary rear gun turret details. From the exactness of the radial engine to the fully loaded bombay interior, the precision of the molds and features are so accurate, even the most fastidious aircraft historian and kit builder will relish this kit.</p>

Even today, we are still feeling the effects as the nations’ continue to grow economically, while finding their national pride and becoming one with the world. 1989 Dawn of Freedom explores this tumultuous beginning and provides players with an insight to the dynamics of what occurred during this historic year.</font></p>

<li><font color="#000000">Two Countersheets</font> </li>

<h2><font style="font-weight: bold">The Game Map</font></h2>
<p><font color="#000000">First of all, I want to state right from the beginning, that 1989 Dawn of Freedom is truly a fascinating game. While it may appear to be a complex game with a long learning curve, nothing could be further from the truth. It’s not that it is a simple game, but if you follow the Rule Book, and Turn Sequence, and read the detailed example of play, it really clarifies most questions that you may encounter.</font></p>
<p><font color="#000000">The gorgeous map is divided into six countries which are;</font></p>
<ul>
<li><font color="#000000">East Germany</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">Poland,</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">Czechoslovakia</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">Hungary</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">Romania</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">Bulgaria</font> </li>
</ul>
<h2><font style="font-weight: bold">Map Spaces</font></h2>
<p><font color="#000000">There are spaces in a country on the map that represent not only geographic locations, but they also represent various Socio-economic segments of that countries so<a href="http://www.mataka.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/clip_image0062.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 10px 0px 0px 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: right; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="clip_image006" border="0" hspace="12" alt="clip_image006" align="right" src="http://www.mataka.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/clip_image006_thumb2.jpg" width="388" height="364" /></a>ciety. The Socio-Economic icons that you may see on the map are;</font></p>
<p><font color="#000000">Elite Space &#8211; (Limousine) The power elite of the communist society.</font></p>
<p><font color="#000000">Bureaucrat – (star) these spaces represent those that are beneath the Power Elite but run the day-to-day operations of the socialist state.</font></p>
<p><font color="#000000">Farmer – (sickle) these spaces represent the rural areas of the country.</font></p>
<p><font color="#000000">Worker – (hammer) these spaces represent the largest portion of the population.</font></p>
<p><font color="#000000">Intellectual – (typewriter) these spaces represent dissidents who provide leadership and a voice to democratic movements.</font></p>
<p><font color="#000000">Student – (victory sign) these spaces represent the students who are the vanguard of protest against the regimes.</font></p>
<p><font color="#000000">Church – (church) these spaces represent the religious institutions.</font></p>
<p><font color="#000000">Minority – (Muslim Crescent and the Szekely Sun and Moon) these spaces represent important minority groups.</font></p>
<p><font color="#000000">As you can see on the map, the name of the population center is noted as well as the type of space it represents.</font></p>
<p><a href="http://www.mataka.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/clip_image007.png" rel="lightbox"><font color="#000000"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 10px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: left; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="clip_image007" border="0" alt="clip_image007" align="left" src="http://www.mataka.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/clip_image007_thumb.png" width="172" height="152" /></font></a></p>
<p><font color="#000000">Other important pieces of game play information that are on the map are the spaces Stability Number, whether or not the space is a Battleground space, and the interconnected lines. The Stability Number that is located in the upper right hand corner tells the player how much support is necessary to control the space. Support points are gained when a player plays a card. Battle Ground spaces are the ones that have a multi-colored background. When you control a Battle Ground space special rules come into play for country scoring. The Lines between the spaces interconnect once space with another which allows players to place Support Points in adjacent spaces that they control.</font></p>
<p><font color="#000000">Finally, there are the Scoring Boxes. The scoring Box provides the player with the Countries Scoring Values once they control that country.</font></p>
<h2><font style="font-weight: bold">The Turn Sequence</font></h2>
<p><font color="#000000">You would think that a game that is a Socio-Economic simulation would be a long game with a complex Sequence of Play. However, in the case of 1989 Dawn of Freedom, you would be wrong. First of all, the game is only 10 turns in length. Next, a typical Sequence of Play during a turn can be a minimum of 4 steps and as many as 7 steps, with a few steps possibly having multiple phases. Lastly, mix in a very interactive Card Driven game design and you have the making of a game that is easy to learn, not overly complex, and a blast to play.</font></p>
<p><font color="#000000">The Turn Sequence of a typical game turn is as follows;</font></p>
<ul>
<li><font color="#000000">Deal Strategy Cards</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">Play Action Rounds</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">Make Extra Support Check (if applicable)</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">Verify Held Cards</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">Celebrate New Year’s Eve Party (if applicable)</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">Advance Turn Marker</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">Calculate Final Scoring (after turn 10)</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">Action Rounds</font> </li>
</ul>
<p><font color="#000000">At the start of each game turn, each player is dealt cards so that the total size of their hand is 8 cards. Once both players have their cards, we move to the Action Rounds. The Communist Player is always the first player in the Action Round. During an Action Round a player plays one card from his hand and performs the actions that are on the card. Following this, play then alternates to the other player and he plays one card and performs the actions. This Action Round alternates back and forth so that each player executes a total of 7 rounds. Once the 7 rounds are completed, play then proceeds to the next phase in the Turn Sequence.</font></p>

<h2><a href="http://www.mataka.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/clip_image0099.jpg" rel="lightbox"><font color="#000000"></font></a><font color="#000000"><font style="font-weight: bold">The Cards</font></font></h2>
<p><font color="#000000">There are 110 Strategy Cards and 52 Power Struggle Cards that can be used in this game. Typically a player receives Support Points when a Strategy card is played during an Action Round. These Support Points are used to control spaces. To control a space a player must have more the Stability Number plus the number of Support Points you opponent has in the space. So, if the Stability Number of a space is 3 and each player has 2 Support Points in the space, as soon as one player has 5 Support Points in that space they control that space.</font></p>
<p><font color="#000000">Country Scoring is based on the controlling of spaces. If a player controls at least once space in a country it is said to have a Presence. A player is Dominant in a country if he controls more spaces and more Battleground spaces than the Opponent. Control of a country occurs when a player not only controls more spaces than their opponent, but also controls all of the Battleground spaces in that country. Victory Points are awarded for every Battleground Space that a player controls.</font></p>
<p><font color="#000000">There are 52 Power Struggle Cards that are used in the game. The Power Struggle deck comes into play whenever a countries Scoring Card is played from the Strategy Card deck. One thing that you must remember about the Scoring Card is that it must be played on the turn that it is dealt. If it is left over at the end of the turn that player immediately loses the game. There is a 5 step process for resolving Power Struggles. These 5 steps are;</font></p>
<ul>
<li><font color="#000000">Deal Cards</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">Raise the Stakes (Optional)</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">Play Cards One At A Time</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">Aftermath – Penalties and Rewards</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">Scoring</font> </li>
</ul>
<p><font color="#000000">While Power Struggles occur intermittently in the game, they can have far reaching effects that can directly affect which side will come out victorious.</font></p>
<h2><font style="font-weight: bold">Victory Conditions</font></h2>
<p><font color="#000000">There are four different ways in which a player can win a game of 1989 Dawn of Freedom. The four Victory Conditions are;</font></p>
<ul>
<li><font color="#000000">A player Scores 20VP’s</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">An illegal card is held when Verifying Cards</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">New Year’s Eve Party conditions are met</font> </li>
<li><font color="#000000">Final Scoring based on countries</font> </li>
</ul>
<p><font color="#000000">As with all of the other facets of this game, the Victory Conditions may sound simple to achieve, but working towards them is all the fun of the game.</font></p>
<h2><font style="font-weight: bold">Summary</font></h2>
<p><font color="#000000">As you can imagine, it is the interaction of the cards that are played that make this game so engaging and interesting. It is the see saw action and the strategy in which players play the cards that makes the game exciting. When I first saw the title for this game, it didn’t excite me. However, having played a few rounds I can tell you it is a unique game that is easy to learn and one that will take years to master. If you are a grognard and want to look at a different type of game I can tell you that you will not be disappointed. I never thought that I would say that a Socio-Economic game is stimulating, engaging, challenging, and because of the back and forth interplay exciting as either the Democrats or Communists try to rule the Eastern Bloc Nations. Can you change history?</font></p>

<h2><font style="font-weight: bold">Scenario Play</font></h2>
<p>To play any of the scenarios in this set you need to own the Core set of C &amp; C Ancients for the Battle Dice. You will also need Expansions 2 and 3 as the source of the game boards. Instead of a battlefield of 13 x 9 hexes, the Epic field is 26 x 9 hexes.</p>
<p>The Battlefield is still divided up into three sections Right, Center and Left. The way to play Epic Ancients is with a team of four players per side. One player acts as the overall commander, each of the other three players per side is in charge of a section of the battlefield.</p>
<p>The overall commander has control of the hand of Command Cards. The individual section commanders have complete control over their units. The overall commander can play up to three Field Command cards in a turn, one for each section of the board. Each card is given to the individual commanders to execute. The overall commander may consult with only one of his section commanders after playing the cards. This must be done out of earshot of the other Field Commanders. The Field Commanders now proceed to execute the orders on the specific card given them. This may not always be in line with the plans of the overall commander. This system simulates that some commanders receive their orders by courier and not directly from the Supreme General.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mataka.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/clip_image004.gif" rel="lightbox"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto; padding-top: 0px" title="clip_image004" border="0" alt="clip_image004" src="http://www.mataka.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/clip_image004_thumb.gif" width="579" height="349" /></a></p>
<p>While the game was primarily designed as a multi-player game, that is not to say that individuals cannot setup the game to play either solitaire or against a single opponent. No matter how many players you have to play the game, it in no way detracts from the games’ enjoyment.</p>
<h2><font style="font-weight: bold">Sequence of Play</font></h2>
<p>The overall gameplay of Epic Ancients is the same as the individual games. The sequence of play is as follows:</p>
<ul>
<li>Play Command Cards, Order Units and Leaders </li>
<li>Move ordered units </li>
<li>Battle </li>
<li>Draw new Command Cards </li>
</ul>
<p>Movement and Battle (Combat) for individual units is designated on the Player Aide cards included in the expansion providing the forces.</p>
<h2><font style="font-weight: bold">Conclusion</font></h2>
<p>While you may not always be able to get eight players together to play the included scenarios of this expansion, when you can, your experience will be much closer to what was faced by the actual commanders in the ancient world. I can recommend this expansion to wargaming clubs, larger groups, or individuals who wish to experience the feel of ancient epic combat from a command point of view.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[&#160; Osprey Publishing’s Men at Arms #480 Napoleon’s Dragoons of the Imperial Guard Written by Ronald Pawly Illustrated by Patrice Courcelle This book is number 480 in Osprey Publishing’s “Men-at-Arms” series. This 48 page book contains the history of Napoleon’s legendary Dragoons from its creation, to its establishment, its organization and its long service to the Emperor. The author begins by giving us the background of the unit in 1806. Here we learn that this unit began life as a ceremonial regiment and that later it was turned into elite reinforcements for the Cavalry of the Guard. The author follows Napoleon’s Dragoons through the various Campaigns in Europe and Russia to the final battlefield of Waterloo in 1815. The rich historical details presented in this book have been drawn from information that was contained in the original manuscript correspondence of Napoleon. Additional historical information was gathered from his Senior Officers, and the Regimental records. One of the main features of this book is that it showcases their uniforms and equipment. It does this through detailed illustrations and beautiful color plates that cover all ranks and orders of dress A number of these uniform plates are based on period portrait photographs [...]]]></description>

<p>This 48 page book contains the history of Napoleon’s legendary Dragoons from its creation, to its establishment, its organization and its long service to the Emperor.</p>
<p>The author begins by giving us the background of the unit in 1806. Here we learn that this unit began life as a ceremonial regiment and that later it was turned into elite reinforcements for the Cavalry of the Guard. The author follows Napoleon’s Dragoons through the various Campaigns in Europe and Russia to the final battlefield of Waterloo in 1815.</p>
<p>The rich historical details presented in this book have been drawn from information that was contained in the original manuscript correspondence of Napoleon. Additional historical information was gathered from his Senior Officers, and the Regimental records.</p>
<p>One of the main features of this book is that it showcases their uniforms and equipment. It does this through detailed illustrations and beautiful color plates that cover all ranks and orders of dress A number of these uniform plates are based on period portrait photographs of offices and men of the unit. It is an excellent source of reference material for Napoleon’s Dragoons of the Imperial Guard who were also known as the Empress’s Dragoons. The Contents of this 49 page book are:</p>

<p>This weekend, the path to Gen Con Indy 2012 continues with the opening of Event Registration!                                             </p>
<p>On Sunday, May 20 at noon eastern, Gen Con Indy 2012 badge holders can begin signing-up for events posted in the registration system, found at <a href="http://gencon.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2f77d2f8c77398c0b064223ba&amp;id=aabc8e2337&amp;e=05ad2bea83" target="_blank">registration.gencon.com</a><span style="color: #336699"></span>.                                             </p>
<p>It is important to note that if you want to register for events, you MUST have a current, valid badge for Gen Con Indy 2012. With your badge, you will be able to purchase event tickets, purchase tickets for friends in the registration system, and create a Wish List of events.                                             </p>
<p>Just like 2011, Wish Lists that users submit at noon eastern will process first. After these Wish Lists are processed in queue, individual event tickets will be made available for purchase via the Cart. This feature will ensure that the system can process the maximum number of events, preventing delays. We recommend that you build the Wish List prior to registration opening, if you would like the best chance of participating in high-demand events.                                             </p>
<p>More information on the registration process can be found <a href="http://gencon.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2f77d2f8c77398c0b064223ba&amp;id=1554ff5944&amp;e=05ad2bea83" target="_blank">here</a><span style="color: #336699"></span>.

<p>If you missed the news from last week, Gen Con has selected its first-ever Gen Con Indy SPA Guest of Honor, Joan ofDark.Also known as Toni Carr, Joan is a noted author, roller-derby skater, entrepreneur, and crafter.                                             </p>
<p>According to her blog, Joan started knitting when she asked her grandmother to teach her, and instantly regretted all the time in her life she had spent not knitting. Her first book, “<a title="Knockdown Knits" href="http://gencon.us1.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=2f77d2f8c77398c0b064223ba&amp;id=1e599b46c1&amp;e=05ad2bea83" target="_blank"><span style="color: #336699">Knockdown Knits</span></a>,”combines two of her passions, roller derby and knitting. Her second book, “<a title="Knits For Nerds" href="http://gencon.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2f77d2f8c77398c0b064223ba&amp;id=4c8b43d014&amp;e=05ad2bea83"><span style="color: #336699">Knits for Nerds</span></a>,”contains patterns and knitting projects for those with nerdy tastes. When she’s not crafting or skating, Joan manages her coffee shop, <a title="Strange Brew" href="http://gencon.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2f77d2f8c77398c0b064223ba&amp;id=5f24e21233&amp;e=05ad2bea83" target="_blank"><span style="color: #336699">Strange Brew</span></a>, located in Greenwood, Indiana.                                             </p>

<p>Attendees can now return their event tickets to system credit!                                             </p>
<p>This highly requested feature, new in 2012, will give you more flexibility and control over your event schedule, helping you to better organize your Gen Con weekend. In short, if you have signed up for an event but want to change your schedule, you will be able to easily do so now through registration.gencon.com. Simply return your event tickets, and sign-up for new events before pre-registration closes on June 30! Made a mistake? No problem!                                             </p>
<p>This new feature will be available to attendees from the beginning of Event Registration (May 20) through the end of Pre-Registration (June 30). Once Pre-Registration closes and fulfillment begins, any returns must be managed onsite at a Customer Service kiosk, which will open at noon on Wednesday, August 15.                                             <br />Attendee-initiated ticket returns must be applied to system credit. If you want a refund to your original form of purchase, you must contact Customer Service and have them process the refund for you.                                             </p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">System credit is non-refundable, non-transferrable and does not expire.</span></strong>                                             </p>
<p>Any returns processed by Gen Con are subject to an administrative fee, however, attendee-initiated ticket returns are NOT subject to that 5% fee.                                             </p>
<p>There are two ways you may return tickets to system credit – from your homepage or your “My Transactions” page. You may return your own tickets from either page, but if you wish to return tickets you’ve purchased for friends, you’ll need to do that through your “My Transactions” page.                                             </p>
