A friend of mine is there, he got hold of both the Decimator and YT-2400 in english apparently.
Pre-release of Wave 5 sold at Essen SPIEL
Actually that would be Heidelberger Spieleverlag, who is handling FFG's German products.That's great news, nice of FFG to show us European gamers some love.
That name though.
also, German = European? Lots of good men died to prevent that.
No, a lot of good men dies to stop europe being German... there is a difference.
If we hadnt crucified germany after WWI with ridiculous sanctions creating starvation and privation they would have been less likely to go for radical politics in the 30s. Not worked for five years, homes in ruins, cant feed your family... easy to see Hitler as a 'good guy' when all of a sudden everyone has a job, the 'treaty' of versaile is disbanded and a strong german state emerges. its just not black and white. Remember Germany as an entity was pretty new then.
Anyway that was 70 years ago (and 100 years ago).. In the UK Germany had been our strongest ally for *hundreds* of years until a perios of around 30 years from 1914 to 1945.
Forget about WWII and consider NATO and the brave men of Germany who, while the US and UK were prepared to sacrifice parts of west germany to nuke or fall back from to stronger positions if the russians attempted to 're-unify' the Germans swore not to give up a single yard of german land to the russians. Their army was pretty good at that point too... put it this way the international LRRPS school for US , UK and French SF was in Germany with german instructors for a large part.
Since 1991 the Germans have been internationally *very* responsible in somaiia, iraq, afghan and the balkans.
I think we can stop bashing the germans over making some bad decisions while in poverty 80 years ago.. i think they have all paid in guilt a hundred times over.
And for what it's worth, it could have been stopped a lot earlier if the British had actually manned up and challenged hitler earlier and if the US had not have been so pro nazi in the mid 30s (i know its hard to imagine but the Kennedy family thought the nazis were great and public opinion in the US was *very* pro german until about 1940.)

Unfortunately only in German
Friday morning, they sold the English version but not the German translation.
However, I do believe that Heidelberger also have the English version amongst the German ones. It's pricey though, Decimator at 40€ ...
... and the Outrider at € 30.
Didn't buy at those prices.
Edited by dvorFor those interested, I did an unboxing on the YT2400. I'll upload the Decimator soon as well.
