Only recommendation I would make is how this game compares to what seems to be a plethora of squad-level board wargames out there, to include Critical Hit's ADVANCED TACTICAL/TOBRUK SYSTEM (ATS), ASL Starter Kit, COMBAT COMMANDER: EUROPE, and even Avalanche Press's latest PANZERGRENADIER game 1940: THE FALL OF FRANCE. Of course, only some of these treat the 1940 French in any detail, which is one of the big draws of this game. But I also think the LOCK 'N LOAD (HEROES) tactical system has some unique draws to it that make it different than what else is out there. It's a matter of whether what it offers and what it leaves out work for you. Accurate review.
