Kind of early to mention this but next game in the Korean War line up is:

Lots of scenarios!

Jay, if you are allowed to divulge that information, how many scenarios play with less than 50 pieces, with 51-100 pieces, 101-200 pieces, and 200+ pieces?

No right or wrong answer, just trying of the scenario size distribution.

Thanks!
So what period does this cover? Naktong breakout to Chinese @ Yalu?... just curious because the cover art is the 65th Infantry Regiment (Puerto Rican) o/a December, 1950.
This one covers from about August 5th - October 22nd 1950.

I didn't really want to count all 62 scenarios for a counter breakdown but I would say the majority will fall in the 101-200 range maybe 50% with the next most common 50 or less maybe 40% and 101-200 about 10%, none with more then 201+ as I recall.
I assume you meant the majority fell into the 51-100 pieces range.

Thanks for the information Jay.
Hey that's great Jay, a PG game who's action starts on the day I was born!! :-)
I assume there will be a third game for Chosin.
The third game is called Intervention at this point and covers October 23rd 1950 - July 27th 1953 and the forth item, a supplement will add Allied/UN nations and counters.

Awesome - looking forward to it all. especially the supplement - it will be awesome to hopefully refight some of the great actions by the Brits, Greeks, and Turks.
Just a thought, but if you are caught up in your game writing efforts, might it be possible to do some post-Vietnam cold war Korea? With PG covering other cold war stuff, covering a 1970s and later Korean War might be of interest. Well, it would be to me, anyway, not sure that would sell a lot of games. The crises of August 1975 and one a year or so later, first when North Koreans attacked and beat to death two US officers and the second when members of a Russian tour group appear to have tried to defect and triggered a fire fight between North Korean and UN troops, both at Pan Mun Jom, either of which might have triggered a broader fight. Interest to me because I was a scout jeep driver in the one US tank battalion there for the first one, but there was something on the History channel covering both of these a few years ago. So, for the north, a mix of T-10s and T-55s, for the south, US M-60A1s, South Korean M-47s, and some UN odds and ends that deploy as the South tries to hold on. Update the order of battle of Pusan Perimeter and just offer as a book with a dozen scenarios or so and new counters.
