Unholy Trinity - Wargame, Euro, and AT in one?

VIKTORY II.

You've got supply limits, armed conflict over territory, and varied unit types.

You've got abstracted resource control and production, extremely streamlined rules, and a SETTLERS-inspired board.

You've got dice, player elimination, and fun.

I think that's it.

TWILIGHT IMPERIUM also comes to mind.

How is Galaxy Trucker a wargame?

Sorry, wasn't thinking of the wargame bit. His games tend to be total mixes of Euro and AT bits, though.

I propose Here I Stand. France and England for the wargamers, whatever is going on in the northeast for the Eurogamers, and the Ottomans for the ATers.

Disagree. In spite of being non-violent (at least when no reformers get burnt) "whatever is going on in the northeast" has far too much dice rolling to suit an eurogamer.

There is no such thing.
Supply limits are euro mechanics now? AT can't have resource management?
Get the fuck out of here fools.

Damn, you beat me to it! So I'll go with Game B: Manoeuvre. Napoleonic, wargame chits, dice for combat, units activated by cards, elimination. Wargame + AT but not so much Euro, I'd say it has more of an influence from abstracts than Euros.

There's a fine line between abstract and Euro.

More like a pasted-on theme between abstract and Euro.
