question of design
Posted: Tue Nov 24, 2015 1:27 am
i've playing BA & BA2 a lot lately...i mean A LOT...and as a one time fanatical ASL player, I couldn't help but notice the similarities between ASL and BA...
the way I see it, there's 2 reasons possible...
1. I find that both games are extremely detailed and realistic portrayals of WW2 action on a small unit scale...ASL consumed a large part of my life during my mid to late 20s and early 30s...I woulds pore over the rule book continuously...
1, Battle Academy is similar in that respect so therefore: similarities are bound to become apparent...i see that as natural and probable or
2, the designers of BA intentionally drew upon the game play of ASL as a guide...I dont see this as being likely, but possible...
So, I guess my question is....which one is the true reason....is the game based upon AsL or is it just a happy coincidence
