Matrix Games/Slitherine European Warehouse & Cheaper Shipping



We're delighted to announce we have transformed our logistics system and can offer faster and cheaper deliveries. Delivery is now as little as $1.64 with savings of up to 85%!*

In the US we have found new partners which allow us to offer huge savings on shipping charges. The cost of shipping the large hard backed books has plummeted from $25 to just $10 – a saving of 60%.

In Europe things get even better. We have opened a German warehouse so all orders outside of the US and Canada are now shipped from Germany. If you are ordering in the EU the shipping costs will drop by around 26-72% for standard boxes and 44-85% for books and large items. There will also be no customs checks as it is dispatched from within the EU and delivery will be vastly quicker. The rest of Europe, the Middle East and Africa will see up to 30% savings across the board.

There are no changes to shipping in Canada and the rest of the world.

Now is a great time to take advantage of these great new shipping charges to pick up your favourite games in physical form, and if you held off ordering a physical version, don't forget you can upgrade to physical now at...

Debrief: Retaliation - DCS: AJS37 Viggen (Beta)

Mission for today: show of force against Russian-backed forces from Abkhazia who shot heavy mortar rounds towards Zugdidi.


On station near Zugdidi, setting up weapons. The DCS Viggen has one of the most beautiful virtual cockpits in the series. It was not long ago that it didn't even have shadows.



Payload includes 16 M71 high drag bombs, ideal for this type of missions against dispersed soft targets.



M3, the target waypoint, some 13 km in front. The Viggen, low and fast. Gauges, demoted to irrelevant. I'm myself become just a passenger for a fraction of a second.

Steel Division Normandy 44 - Scouts Out

Some wargamers tend to see their reconnaissance units as pawns. Let's them do what they are meant to.


This Panzer IV moves for the kill. Targets and safe route to contact kindly provided by scouts.



Use multiple waypoints to ensure the computer doesn't pick some odd route towards the observation position. This is also useful
for any type of unit off course. Also note that the mode of movement is "Hunt" (Q), just to make sure that if the reconnaissance
unit comes into trouble you will have time to pull it out.




This German reconnaissance unit can dismount its scouts (note them running towards the buildings).
This is very useful for having eyes beyond the mobility shortcomings of this wheeled vehicle.
