Thanks for the regular Grognard updates! Although I never participate in
the quiz (not enough of a wargamer), I appreciate the occasional reviews
and replays. Just one question:
Svea Rike is originally a board game. The replay sounds as of they used
the board game, too, but you refer to it as a computer game. Is there a
PC version of Svea Rike out there?
Cheers,
Michael

The replay was of the board game version. My mistake was adding the
link to the replay against the wrong game :-( It will be fixed asap.
