I agree, it is an excellent system.

Not an Italian player I'm afraid.

Under the scenarios section at the back of the rules there is a reccomended 
first SG game set out. That might be a good start. I think the first games I 
played were 1 platoon per side, this is a nice size to start out.

In my experience, 2 platoons per side for 2 players is a substantial game, 
especially when adding any complications (artillery, aerospace, VTOLs 
vehicles etc).

I was suprised to find that very small games of SG can often be just as 
satisfying and are of course quicker. My borther and I have been working on 
a scenario generator "inspired" by something in Wargames Illustrated. I 
could e-mail you what I have so far (its complete, but not fully balanced) 
if you want (contact me off-list)

Enjoy

Richard
