Hunted Cow a annoncé cette semaine un nouveau partenariat avec cette fois Dan Versen Games afin d’adapter sur PC, Mac, iOS et Android la série de jeux de cartes Lightning War. Série pour laquelle cinq titres étaient donc sortis entre 2004 et 2008, et qu’on pourra redécouvrir en version numérique à partir du second trimestre de l’année prochaine avec semble-t-il pour commencer soit le jeu sur le thème de Midway, soit celui sur le Débarquement.
