Ron Meier Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 In the December 2005 issue, CGW gave DiF 4.5 stars and Editor's choice. They also used the game in a section called Tom v. Bruce where these two guys play a game against each other and describe their experience while attempting to share their wit. The wit part usually falls flat on their face, but the exposure for the game is pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixxkiller Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 4.5 Stars, ITS AN OUTRAGE!!!! I say we boycott reading the magazine until they stop with the obvious lack of respect for this fine game. STOP THE HATE CGW, STOP THE HATE!!! -Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sixxkiller Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 I was just kidding Ron. Looks like you created quite a stir over on the CM:SF board too. Damn subscribers... -Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Meier Posted November 4, 2005 Author Share Posted November 4, 2005 Yeah I noticed the feeding frenzy. Funny I stop posting in the forums a long time ago due to attitudes of people, but after reading the reviews of DiF, I decided to stop by and when I saw a need that I could fill, I couldn't resist. LOL. Now I am deciding whether or not to pick up DiF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixxkiller Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 Debate is fine for a politician. Just get the game its really a fine game thats gonna get even better soon. -Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Verssen Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 I went out and bought the magazine today. They did a great job of covering the game! A very nice review and a page and a half of Solomons after action report. They did make the point of wanting to see more of the game's 'guts' revealed, like the exact calculations for Fatigue and such. That might be a good point.

I expect your vote in the upcoming election Ron. Well that is if you can tear yourself from the game. And Dan my paycheck didnt show up in the mail AGAIN!!! Starting to think my career in wargames has hit a "stall". Cant get elected w/o money and cant pass that law on mandatory purchase of DIF and Battlefront games..... -Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckK Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Good thing I read my copy of this month's CGW. I totally forgot about this game coming out. I spent some time with the demo this weekend and decided CGW was right. This one is a keeper! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
