Description: Command Magazine 49 & Game Warmaster Chess 2000 From 1998. Some claim this is the worst magazine wargame ever produced. From Board Game Geek: “Very controversial insert game in Command Magazine Issue #49. Considered by many to be the issue where Command "jumped the shark." Outraged subscribers were appalled when their complaints were dismissed as a bunch of whining by XTR. Apparently intended merely as a small bonus game it ended up carrying the whole load when the planned issue game fell through, it was marred by unusually poor quality control. It is a chess variant with the board expanded to 12 x 12 squares. Follow-up variants in the next two issues of Command added a some interesting variant pieces with new moves and powers and a whole different chess-like game based on 20th Century military units, none of which got the attention it deserved because of the outrage and bad feeling left over from the initial impression. For chess players some interesting ideas, many of which have been seen before in one form or another. For historical board wargamers, it was simply not enough there, and it seemed like a rather pathetic and transparent attempt to cover up XTR's failure to have a suitable alternative to the planned issue game.” I pay postage.
