Description

WE ARE ALL IN with the AP-style 11" × 16" geo boards and remaking the terrain and play of PTO scenarios along the way! Can you say, 'place 1144 and 1145 on 119 and 120, then place 4008 and 4009 on 307 and 306, all orchards are crags, treat all brush as open ground, treat all grain as marsh, place the.....' Ok, we know you CAN. But do you have to? Not any more, as the GEO PTO collection is HERE and you can forget all that terrain visualizing, ignoring, and OCEAN on the Be on the Effluent jiggle jaggle. The aim is simple: PROVIDE YOU NEW PTO TERRAIN in abundance to slap down and get the action rolling. And yes, pardon the moxie (but note that no one creates anything without moxie in this world), but the intended result is the largest collection of PTO-terrain themed boards ever. Bar none (or BAR, Browning Automatic Rifle ... none).

Hold your horses, these modules are NOT a cool collection of cool PTO terrain that is custom-made to create historical terrain, unique and never portrayed in the system on any prior GEO BOARD. Ok, it IS all those things, but more. More as in the form of a FREE BONUS USMC Infantry counter sheet with PTO 1. More as in 8 scenarios, in color format, that star the UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS IN WORLD WAR 2 and play on the boards. More as in the collection provides ALL the boards you need, bring your Gyrenes and Japanese plus your ASLRB of course > and you are good to go. There is even a Vernacular Chapter G for the PTO terrain to simplify things and get you into the action FAST.

Beach landing boards with no overlays needed. Naked ridges, with twisty gullies, myriad lines-of-sight. Fire traps, ambushes, Jungle, Kunai, slippery-sided streams. And a collection of boards and no hexside trim square sided overlays for new village terrain, airfield ... effluent, OCEAN, Beach, printed submerged/exposed Reef terrain .... yes, a LONG PIER .... IWO JIMA hills and crags. Get it all and have a larger collection of boards and overlays than Gung/Bushido and then some. Plus 8 scenarios per module. What you won't get is a lot of cave-heavy scenarios, noting against the troglodyte wing of wargame guys, why do you think God invented those cute little basement windows, to get them some LIGHT. But we know YOU, the Chesty Puller-kind of wargamer wants SUNLIGHT, and that means we aim to get you into the ACTION, not expose you to a hexside overlay trim-a-thon, or 1120 and 1121 on 431 and 432 ... dis-incentive to HIT THE BEACH. Hit it, men, with GEO PTO 1, GEO PTO 2, and GEO PTO 3 modules. But first, clear some shelf space for these here purdy foloders as they will be full and by all means, drop and give me 20, you will have to be IN TIP TOP SHAPE soldier ... to wade in against enemy fire!
