Shockwave arrives as an epic supplement for the classic wargames Ogre and G.E.V., bringing a massive arsenal of 224 combat counters, a 13 × 14.5‑inch (33 × 36 cm) map that fits perfectly on any side of the G.E.V. board, and twelve scenarios ranging from high‑impact Ogre battles to infiltration missions in G.E.V. The unit variety is impressive: the feared Cruise Missile, which can be shot down by a Laser Tower, three new variants of G.E.V. units, and the legendary Superheavy Tank delivering devastating firepower. Each scenario is designed to explore different tactics, whether dominating the battlefield with heavy forces or executing reconnaissance and sabotage operations. The game keeps the hexagonal grid mechanic that facilitates movement and coverage, demanding strategic thinking to position troops and use resources wisely. Though a supplement, Shockwave functions as a complete game, with clear rules and quality components. Players who already own Ogre or G.E.V. will delight in the expansion, while newcomers can start right away with the base game and dive into the added scenarios. The average playtime is about 60 minutes, ideal for quick but intense sessions. With a BGG rating of 2.36/5, the title still receives praise for tactical depth and combat options. If you love sci‑fi themed war games and want something that expands the Ogre and G.E.V. universe, Shockwave is a solid pick. The set also includes terrain tokens such as bunkers, bridges, and ruins, adding layers of strategy to troop positioning. G.E.V. scenarios require creative use of reconnaissance units, while Ogre scenarios exploit reinforcement logistics and heavy tank maneuvering.
