ATO Magazine explores military history from both up-close and far away, placing battles in the conte

We offer games on a wide range of historical periods, from early chariot battles to Vietnam and the "6 Day War." While heavily involved with WW2 subjects, we are getting more and more American Civil War and American Revolution titles in. See also our 'sister' company, Turning Point Simulations, at https://www.turningpointsimulations.com/

The early copies to staff are arriving.

JD says “I received my copies of the game in Tampa Florida this Saturday… They look awesome. Quality of the materials (card stock, etc.) is even higher than I expected.”

Developer Terry Simo writes: “Huzzah! It’s a heckuva package!”

Tomorrow we get “up close and personal” with the contents.

You can still order it, here https://www.atomagazine.com/Details.cfm?ProdID=198&category=0

Let’s get more “up close and personal” to the SECOND game that comes in the Sharpsburg issue.

“Tunisgrad: The End in North Africa” focuses on the 7 month period in 1942 and 1943 where Allied forces first drove back, and then eventually pocketed, all Axis forces remaining in the Tunisian area of North Africa. Each turn is a month, and the 32 unit counters range in size from companies to armies. A savage and quick-playing look at this important campaign.

You get this AND Sharpsburg in the same issue!

A short clip from an AmRev reenactment, about a battle that we are particularly interested in!

As promised, we get up close and personal with the counters from our next game—“Sharpsburg: Landscape Turned Red.”

Apologies for color shifts. The background colors are consistent for each side.

We are not spending much time ringing bells and opening bottles of ch*****ne (yet) but it is a happy day when an "issue" starts to go out the door. We are now shipping these to backers and the pre-orders will come right after that. Here is the contents spread of the BIG issue (more pages than we've ever put into one magazine, and EVERY article is about the subject!) and some snips from the counter sheet.

You can still pre-order this! Link in first comment.

Yesterday's post tweaked a realization that we have a number of great "city fight" games that are now on "Endangered Species," with just 2 or 3 copies left of each. (Actually, "Storm" is down to ONE copy left!)

We will put specific game links on the photos, and a link to the "Endangered Species" section in the first comment.

That's how it is with 'city fights.' Battles within battles within battles.

Cool story.

The Battle of Vienna and the Collapse of Ottoman Ambitions in Europe

The Battle of Vienna (1683) saw a Holy League coalition break the Ottoman siege, permanently ending Ottoman territorial expansion into Central Europe.
