Joel Toppen: Video Preview (Inside the Box)

Joel Toppen takes us on a tour of the contents of GMT's '1914, Twilight in the East'. Includes interesting commentary on the game, comparisons to another GMT WWI game, and provides a good sense of the scale and scope of this monster game. And draws an analogy between one of the game components and 'a family reunion at a Motel 6' (good luck trying to figure that one out without watching the video... it's like another Grognard Challenge).
