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: Is it actually possible to make enough plutonium from the entire solar system's heavy metal stocks to noticeably affect its spectral lines?
gollark: I'm sure we can just patch plants to run off electricity instead.
gollark: Unfortunately, the sun is fairly large, so you'll need more.
gollark: I don't see why you would want sunlight. It's irritatingly bright, and causes skin cancer, and causes you to have to turn your phone's brightness up to see it.
