Urban Wargame Reviews
Fairly formal reviews based on a single formal play to help down select the games to focus on. Format roughly follows Peter Perla's “Model Outline of a Hobby Wargame Review” in The Art of Wargaming. Stars are out of 5 and highly personal based how much they might contribute to the PhD (and are changing over time)!
- Fallujah 2004, Phantom Fury - Nuts! ****1/2 - tactical, bn force
- Fallujah 2004, Second Fallujah - Paper Wars ***1/2 - but best Fallujah if you want the overall feel
- Hue, Vietnam Battles: Hue - S&T ** - See my Battles of Hue paper
- Hue, A Week in Hell: The Battle of Hue - Battles *** - See my Battles of Hue paper
- Hue, Block by Block – Battle of Hue - Modern War ***- See my Battles of Hue paper
- Hue, Hue - Mayfair ** - See my Battles of Hue paper
These aren't really Urban, but thought I'd put them here so I know where they are:
