Tons of new products in the line-up!
I saw the recent Gold-Club email and it looks like a lot of new products in the line-up for Panzer Grenadier and Modern PG as well.

Just a guesstimate - 

APL0338 Panzer Grenadier: American D-Day
The June 1944 landings at Omaha and Utah Beaches, and their immediate aftermath. It’s a Mike Perryman game design (Liberation 1944, Burning Tigers) with 30 scenarios (organized into chapter with battle games, like all of our recent Panzer Grenadier releases), 517 die-cut and silky smooth playing pieces (each of the 2/3-inch square) and four new maps. 

APL0339 Panzer Grenadier: Ardennes 1944
This just might be the ultimate Panzer Grenadier game. It’s certainly stuffed with fun: 68 scenarios, 693 die-cut and silky-smooth playing pieces and eight maps. The maps are unique in the series; they look like the actual terrain, but you can interchange them just like the regular geomorphic maps, too.
We’ve been to the Battle of the Bulge before in Panzer Grenadier, and done it well, but not like this. It’s by Philippe Léonard (Road to Dunkirk), who as usual has done his homework in multiple languages and with primary sources. That dovetails perfectly with the new chapter/battle game format we’ve been using in the newest Panzer Grenadier games.

APL0340 Panzer Grenadier (Modern). Vietnam: Khe Sanh 1968.
We’re well overdue to release some more Panzer Grenadier (Modern) titles, and we’ll go outside the Middle East but in the same time-frame (so you can compare units and weapons and armies, and use them to fight each other if you want). Along with the other battles in Quang Tri Province, the Siege of Khe Sanh represented the climax of U.S. involvement in Vietnam. In this game, the U.S. Marines, U.S. Army and ARVN fight off NVA regulars and VC cadres.
The game comes with 517 die-cut, silky-smooth playing pieces and four brand-new maps, with 40 scenarios organized in our story format (you know, historical chapters with battle games connecting the scenarios).

 APL0341 Panzer Grenadier (Modern). Cold War: Fulda Gap 1968
And we’ll also go to the Central Front during the Prague Spring, when the Soviets moved into Czechoslovakia . . . and stopped. This time, the Soviet Eighth Guards Army attempts to offer fraternal assistance to West Germany as well, and are met by the American V Corps and West German III Corps. You get 517 die-cut, silky-smooth playing pieces, four maps and forty scenarios in our story format. That lets us really show off the Panzer Grenadier (Modern) game system with T62’s, M60’s and Leopard 1’s.

One wonders whether, by "actual" terrain, they mean - at least in part - in winter scheme or, well, not.  I always enjoyed using the Winter Wonderland set for EBR and WS scenarios.

I would still like to see some of my outstanding, paid for games come in before I order more. But we’ll see!

 Hey Jay!  Quick question, I was playing Saipan with my dad the other day and we came across sugar cane fields.  There was nothing listed anywhere, I assigned it the same values as Wheat Fields in season.  I was wondering what was the actual stats?  Thank You in advance.

Hi Nicky! I guess this one was an oversite. For simplicity, treat it as field hexes. Some might argue light jungle however. I would go with field.
