Here is a list of the games that will come in the SGS collection. Some are already in beta testing and have a rather advanced status; others are still on their way and shall take a few extra months to be completed. The order below is alphabetical, not by appearance or planned release.
SGS Afrika Korps
A game with 5 scenarios and 2 campaigns covering most of WW2 desert war in Libya and Egypt between 1941 and 1942. You can play the fabled Desert Fox and its Afrika Korps, with its Italian allies, or the British 8th Army and all the Commonwealth forces that opposed Rommel’s action in this unique theater of operations.
SGS Fall Blau
This covers essentially the German campaign of 1942 on the eastern front, towards Caucasus and the Volga. Players will try to do better than their historical counterparts, capturing and holding Stalingrad or the Caucasus oilfields as the Axis, or repulsing the enemy onslaught and winning the campaign as the Soviets. A specific scenario, at a different scale, will cover the battle of Stalingrad itself.
Artworks of most game units done, project map and other elements under way.
SGS Heia Safari
The only campaign where forces of Imperial Germany fought victoriously till the end. Considered as a sideshow, the campaign in East Africa between 1914 and 1918 cost thousand of lives and deprived the Allies from resources that could have been better used elsewhere. You can lead the German commander Von Lettow’s and his skilled Askaris against an array of Allied troops from the Commonwealth, Belgium and Portugal. Get the ‘African Queen’ feeling when playing this exotic campaign.
Game is now in beta testing, awaiting final artworks.
SGS Indochina
Less know than the American war in Vietnam (1965-1975), the French campaigns in Indochina between 1946 and 1954 are mostly known for the final climactic battle – and defeat – at Dien Bien Phu in 1954. Relive every year of this dense colonial and cold war, playing as the French and their local allies or as the Vietminh and its Communist supports. The game covers also an intense non-military activity through card play about diplomacy, cold war conflicts, domestic politics, press and dozens of outside events.
Artworks of game units are done, project map and other elements under way.
SGS Halls of Montezuma
The US-Mexican war of 1846-1848 paved the way to one of the largest territorial expansions of the United States (after the Louisiana Purchase) in the XIXth century. But what if the war had not been that decisive and domestic politics had prevented the favorable conclusion? Relive the conflict between USA and Mexico in this game with many yearly scenarios, campaigns and a wealth of events and cards to illustrate outside non-military interference.
Game is now in alpha testing.
SGS Taïpings
Between 1853 and 1867, China was engulfed in its most horrific – and deadly – civil war, the Taïping Rebellion, that cost the lives of millions of Chinese. In this game, you will play the rebellious troops of the ‘Heavenly Kingdom’ (a.k.a. the Taïping) and their other allies like the Nien bandits, against the Qing dynasty. Foreign powers intervention will play a nuisance role on both sides.
Artwork of game units is done, order of Battle is settled, project map and other elements under way.
SGS Winter War
Winter War is the story of the Soviet onslaught on tiny Finland from November 1939 to March 1940, at the beginning of WW2. Can the Finns hold beyond the reasonable and receive the long awaited Allied intervention? Or will the Russian bear crush them and force them to lose their border lands?
