A Note on Copyright

WW2: the Med is COPYRIGHTED -- NOT Public Domain -- and FREE under the following conditions:

WW2: the Med is free (but not public domain) for anyone to print off and play your own personal copy, enlarged if you wish.
(To publish the game in boxed format with already mounted pieces would require a licensing contract signed by me.)
All other rights -- including publishing rights -- are reserved to me.

Dedication:

WW2: the Med is Dedicated to our Allied servicepeople who served in the Mediterranean theater in World War 2,
specifically to Cliff Heller, a fellow 1938 high school graduate and friend of my Mom and Dad, Bob and Grace Coatney, who died fighting in French Northwest Africa in 1942,
and to my children, and to my children Rebecca, Robert, Rohan, and Johanna hoping they will never suffer another world war.

The more we learn about the Second World War, the better our chances that it will be the LAST world war.

War must be confined to history books and games and museums and films.
