PETER HOSKIN reviews Grit And Valor 1949: It's 1949. Robo-Nazis have taken over the world and all the allies are trapped... in Scotland

Its alternate history has you commandeering some mechs of your own and leading the Allied fightback, all the way from the Highlands to Berlin. Which would be fine, if those battles had just a little bit more to them, and if the upgrade system didn’t come across as a bunch of random-seeming numbers.
