THE PURSUIT OF VON SPEE - NOW AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER!

June 12, 2008

Starting today The Pursuit of von Spee is now available for pre-order at the lowest price you'll ever see! The regular price will be $49 CAD but for the next two weeks you can pre-order a copy of this game for $39, a savings of 20%! Jeux Grenier Games will never list this game for a lower price. All we ask in return is that you wait until the week of the 23rd of June for your game to be shipped, in order for us to build up a stock of orders to print ahead of time. Be among the first to order and get your hands on a copy of The Pursuit of von Spee at this lowest-ever price!

The Pursuit of von Spee puts you in command of either the German East Asiatic Squadron or the various Allied fleets of the Indian and Pacific Oceans during the first months of World War I. Admiral von Spee led his small fleet of cruisers across the Pacific, wreaking havoc among Allied shipping and sending the Royal Navy into a panic. His epic cruise took him from the shores of China all the way to the frigid waters of the South Atlantic, where he and his men met their end at the Battle of the Falklands in December 1914. The Pursuit of von Spee uses an innovative fog-of-war system, ensuring that neither the Allied nor the German player is aware of the whereabouts of his or her foe. It is a game of subterfuge and bluff, of luck and skill. Can you disrupt Allied shipping and lead your ships to hearth and home? Can you find and destroy von Spee's cruisers in the empty expanses of the Pacific?

COMING SPRING 2008 - THE PURSUIT OF VON SPEE

November 18, 2007

In the Spring of 2008, Grenier Games plans to release The Pursuit of von Spee, a naval warfare game covering the cruise of the German East Asiatic Squadron during World War I. Admiral Maximilian von Spee's small fleet spread panic throughout the Allied navies in the Pacific, and took him to such disparate locations as eastern China, the south Pacific, Chile, and the Falklands. Using an innovative fog-of-war system, this game has endless replay value and will keep both sides guessing from start to finish.

Please visit the discussion forum at Consimworld (WWI Era section) to follow along as this game is developed and released. You can help with the development of this game, as your suggestions, questions, and ideas are appreciated.

OPERATION WESERÜBUNG: THE INVASION OF NORWAY NOW AVAILABLE FOR SALE!

February 19, 2007

After a successful pre-order run, Operation Weserübung: The Invasion of Norway is now shipping and available for sale. All pre-orders are on their way. This game covers the German invasion of the Scandinavian country in the spring of 1940. The game is at regimental scale and includes all aspects of the conflict: land, naval, and air. The game is also a sort of preview of the upcoming releases of World War II in the West and World War II in the East, as Operation Weserübung uses the game system from these upcoming games.

RELEASE OF OPERATION WESERÜBUNG SLIGHTLY DELAYED

January 30, 2007

Because of a family emergency in January which occupied a full week, the release of Operation Weserübung will be delayed for one or two weeks. It will thus start shipping in the first or second week of February. The pre-order will be extended to the release date. We apologise for any inconvenience, but the game will be out very soon!

OPERATION WESERÜBUNG: THE INVASION OF NORWAY AVAILABLE FOR PRE-PUBLICATION ORDER!

December 24, 2006

Operation Weserübung: The Invasion of Norway is now ready for pre-publication order. Covering the 1940 German invasion of Norway, this game is based on the World War II in the West system. However, that system has evolved and Operation Weserübung is a preview of what World War II in the West/East will look like when they are released later in 2007. Operation Weserübung is a regimental look at this campaign, including air and naval operations.

Take advantage of the special pre-publication order today! At the end of January, when this offer will expire, Operation Weserübung will be priced at $39.99 CAD plus shipping and handling of $12.00 CAD. If you pre-pub order today, you can get the game for $29.99 CAD plus shipping and handling, for a savings of 25%! Your pre-pub order will ship at the end of January just before the game is available for sale.

QUELQUES ARPENTS DE NEIGE UPDATE

August 4, 2006

It has been discovered that Quelques Arpents de Neige was shipped with a few missing counters. These counters are not vital to game play, but they should be with the game anyway.

All future games that we will ship will not have this error and will have all counters included. We apologise for any inconvenience. The Errata Page has also been updated for this game.
