Which is why I am glad I am ordering Saipan on this round. Also getting the Luxemborgers as well.
Jay - would any of these scenarios be a good intro scenario for a new player? I reviewed the plays of them but until I get the game, I am not certain.
I ask because the person I am looking to introduce prefers Pacific WW2 rather than ETO, though he is not a wargamer. I think the attractiveness of the maps plus the new edition rules and aids should help in that respect.
Tony, there are lots of short (14 turns or less) and tiny (<40 pieces) scenarios in Saipan than are very appropriate for beginners. I would suggest you let your friend take the Americans because they are stronger and generally more straightforward to play.

Thanks, Daniel. I figured that it would be more appropriate that way. The historical society of our town here is having a "historical" games day at the local rec center at the beginning of April and I was going to bring one of my PG games there.
This one might fill the bill and who knows, it might also get me a few more opponents.
I just received notice that my new maps for Saipan are on the way to Burbank.
Great news Larry, thanks for sharing.
Interesting story, thanks for sharing. There are many more missing on Saipan, I think about 326 on Saipan.
Nice article Robin. Too many of these stories out there that have never been told. Thanks for the link.
