D(vg)-Day!
Announcing June 6th, 2009 as being D(VG)-Day!
June 6th, 1944 was one of the most important battles of WWII as 2 great armies met in combat.
June 6th, 2009 starts the pre-order battle to send two great games to the printer: Frontline D-Day and Phantom Leader.
Each week, we will release new information for these games until victory is assured and the printing presses are rolling!
The Frontline rules have gone through another generation of updates. They are still in rough outline form, but many more rules have been added to fill out the sections.

We’ve also updated the Frontline slideshow with new soldier and vehicle cards!

Also added are the Phantom Leader rules. They are much farther along than the Frontline rules, but they still have a ways to go. There are still many blank spots where graphics will be added.

A few people have reported problems seeing the web site. The web guys have made some updates and I know there has been some success. If you’re receiving this as part of our newsletter or posting on a web site and have had problems, please give it another try and let me know if you still see a blank page.
Jesse Cheng, our demo Team Leader, ran a hugely successful week of demos and games at Consimworld’s Expo this past week. He manned the DVG booth, demoed games, and introduced many new people to our games. Many thanks Jesse! If you have an interest in demoing our games, please contact us and we’ll put you in contact with Jesse.
