Arm Weapons And Climb Solo: Gulf War

Today is a great day for me! “Arm Weapons and Climb Solo: Gulf War“, the second game by Assault Publishing, is officially released! It is a bit of an experimental project after a few attempts at making a primarily solitaire miniatures wargame. It is sold as a boxed set, with the game, models and many accessories – nearly everything needed to start playing. It is also the first wargame officially co-published by Oddział Ósmy (AWACS:GW comes under both AP and OO brands). You can purchase it at AP on-line store or ask one of the following retailers, who have it in their offers: Caliver Books (UK), Wargames Emporium (UK), Battlefield Berlin (DE), Masters of Military (DE) and Pico Armor (USA).

Please note that if you are a retailer from a country without a store cooperating with AP and you are interested in stocking its products, please contact me at orders@assaultpublishing.com.

The wish is the father of the thought.”

The idea for this game was born a few month ago when after hard day at work I told myself that I would gladly move some minis on the table, but there is too late to meet some friends (especially if you have to go to work at 7:30 AM). As I love air wargames, I started to develop a game which would be simple, fast and relaxing enough to be a cool alternative for computer games.

So enjoy the game and wish me luck – if “Arm Weapons And Climb Solo: Gulf War” is successful, it will be the beginning of a whole AWACS series.
