60 Second Review of…Divided Ground: Middle East Conflict: 1948-1973Tom's Review: One of the best things to happen to
wargaming since Gary Grigsby and Norm Koger is John Tiller, the
fellow who helped bang out and eventually shape up Talonsoft's Campaign
Series engine for East Front, West Front, and then the superlative
Rising Sun, which is the nonpareil of old school wargaming. Tiller
recently left Talonsoft and his absense is conspicuous in Divided
Ground, which uses the Campaign Series engine, sans Tiller's skilled
touch, to tepidly tell the stories of Israel's twenty years of beating
up on third-rate Arab armies. Kudos to Talonsoft for covering these
under-represented chapters of military history, but too bad they
couldn't make a compelling wargame out of it.
