First, let me say I am in no way affiliated with Miku Games but ever since I managed to get a new copy of The Finnish Trilogy: Vol. 1 The Winter War 1939-1940, I realized I would be a fool to miss out on getting Torino ’44. I preordered a boxed copy of Torino ’44 and though it hasn’t arrived yet, based on my copy of The Finnish Trilogy Vol. 1 it will be an excellent game. Volume 1 for example is one of the most beautifully produced I’ve ever bought and my war game collection is in excess of 80+ games. Volume 1, in fact the entire Trilogy, meets or exceeds the production values of companies such as MMP or GMT. The map and counters are gorgeous and the rules manual is a full color gloss rules set. The detail and historical research are also evident in every aspect of the game. Furthermore, I’ve had the opportunity to email Mikael Gronroos, the author of the game, a number of times and he is a true gentleman. He cares about his games and the people who buy them. If you are interested in gaming this often overlooked theater of WWII and an even more overlooked battle, this game is a MUST BUY!!!
