Wargame Design Studio have taken on the old John Tiller wargames and updated them with a better user-interface, improved game-AI and constant polish to the rulesets.

I love this game engine, it's my favourite wargaming system. I've not played any of the Squad Battles series before, plus I don't own any WW2 games from WDS, so Eagles Strike felt like a good choice!

If you want to try one of these games before you pay any more, you can download a free demo of the Squad Battles series "Grenada" here: wargameds.com/collections/squad-battles/products/g…

    I remember playing this a long long time ago. I loved SL and ASL and this series always gave me those vibes.

    Really well-explained overview! I'm a strategy gamer who recently discovered Wargame Design Studio within the last few years, and I am so impressed with the quality of their games and their dedication to constantly improving them. They definitely deserve to have their games be seen more.
  • Glad to see a wargame on your channel! I stayed away from the JTS/WDS ones because of the UI, my loss I guess :/ I like that the game has a detailed manual.

    oh, so you have squads with m1,m1,m1 and support of m1 while wearing m1 and m1?

    20 something y.o. big pixel tactics for $0, seems like it's worth a dig. You were questioning the scale, I had a look at the website and it said this:  The game scale is 40 meter hexes and 5 minute turns.
