Despite what my many detractors say, I actually care about my work and wargames. But if you want to see how most feel there are at least one hundred negative reviews to choose from. Drive by Reviews blacklisted Churchill, although to his credit when it won BGG wargame of the year, he acknowledged it

Port Moresby was captured and now I have had a cup of coffee. Terrain modifiers reduce the offensive mods, JP had +3 nerfs Mountain, but Fred rolled a 9, 2x result, 12 hits need 5. Sean rolled a 1,+3 AA, so a 4, 1x result for 3 hits, reduces JP brigade halved defense. Port Moresby captured.

I just went back and reviewed the video for Port Moresby invasion, JP +4 (naval, card) vs Allies +6 which with a die roll of 1 was an Allied 7, not 9. So the JP was reduced (5 hits versus AA defense of 3), but your dr 9 still eliminated defenders, Moresby captured.

@markherman54.bsky.social Churchill has been my go-to “I want to teach board game newbies a GMT game” game for years now. Everyone I’ve played it with says how easy it is to grasp the rules after going through just a single Conference. It’s an amazing design!
