Airfix Battles, an introductory wargame! its fantastic!! I put a board together with four boxes to get lots of mapboards, added some terrain around the edges, but left the centre flat for the counters to move in the squares,I have a train set going round thr edge for when I am not playing it, I am going to have a travel by rail rule. the rules are easy and REALY good. The game is cheap, you get two flipmaps and about 150 chits with vehicles and infantry, you get some nice force cards and an action deck, it even has a solo mode.

I think the most important thing about the airfix battles, is its solo aspect, I have found over many years of solo play you need goals and an easy to remember rule set.
