Thanks for this review/comparison on both systems. I have played BS (TitO) and loved it. I think it’s fun and fast-paced, with enough complexity to allow you to simulate the battle quite nicely.
I have bought two GBACW games, but I am still to try them out. Just unfurling the map (Dead of Winter) is breathtaking… it’s a different level of gaming, almost more prone to studying the actual battle (as you hint) than playing it, more akin to BAR or La Bataille.
Can’t wait to play them!
