Hi all,
I'm an old school gamer bought up on the likes of Avalon Hills Squad leader board game and TSRs Battle of the Ardennes.

Are there downloadable digital versions of these old classics? Or am I showing my age.

cheers

Chris, I am not aware of any digital downloads for the entire game; you may find rules and scenarios digitially. Have you tried Boardgame Geek (BGG); Web Grognard or COMSIMWORLD sites for assistance?

TSR Battle for the Ardennes is the old SPI quad Ardennes games and Decision Games does sell an updated version. You may know that Squad Leader has evolved to Advanced Squad Leader (ASL) with many scenarios and settings done by Multi-Man Publishing (MMP).

If you have any more questions, please let me know. Good luck.

Hi Duane
Thanks for the reply.

I may not have been particularly clear in my request.
I'm looking for online/x box/play station strategy games rather than 1st person shooter.

cheers
