Reception

Nick Schuessler reviewed Beachhead in The Space Gamer No. 31.[1] Schuessler commented that "Matheny has given us a good, solid design. He avoided the error of taking European combat and calling the trees 'jungle' instead of 'forest.' The landing craft rules demonstrate the problems of amphibious invasion. Beachhead moves the 'beer and pretzels' game up to the 'dry white and cheese' level - a hearty offering with delicate overtones. Highly recommended as one of the best values of 1980."[1]

gollark: I figure it would probably be bad to do anything involving graphics, hm.
gollark: 3? I was hoping for at least 5.
gollark: Hmm. I wonder what the maximum amount of suffering I'm reasonably allowed to cause is.
gollark: I didn't actually plan for winning, so I may take up two (2 (²)) days to come up with a suitable challenge.
gollark: But python copies the pointer or something.
