The Age of the Historical Microgame is back with a bang with this grand tactical game of maneuver and firepower!
In Foxhole, a counter represents about 60 men or four to six vehicles, depending upon nationality and time period. Time is abstracted such that a turn represents several minutes, but not a specific amount of time. Each hex on the map represents around 100 yards of terrain.
Foxhole was designed with a few primary goals: To be simple to learn, to be fast-playing, and to reward good tactics. The system does not pretend to be the end-all in WWII tactical simulations, but rather is intended to provide an entertaining yet enlightening diversion from the more heavy fare of historical boardwargaming, yet still retain a sense of realism and fluidity.
