With Konstantinos Travlos's kind permission, I am posting about his announcement of his next project. You may have been following his project of the last couple of years, developing scenarios and supporting material for all the major battles of the Balkan Wars of 1912-1913 - the prelude to WWI, if you will. As that set is now complete and ready for publication, he is about to embark on giving similar treatment to a little-known (to us anglophones) but very substantial conflict, the Greek-Turkish War of 1919-1922, which was some of WWI's unfinished business.
Konstantinos envisions games with the basic units being at one of two scales: Battalion and Regimental, which will determine scenario size and firepower ranges. There may be scenarios at operational level.
Together with Onur Buyuran, he will create a detailed OOB list, plus a bibliography section, plus a short update.
