Blitz!
This is a low level operational game about firefighting during the London Blitz in 1940/41. The basic premise is that the player(s) represent fire officers trying to combat fires and deal with emergencies in the critical period of the first London Blitz of September 1940 to May 1941. It is a ‘tactical skirmish’ game – with individual models representing individual vehicles, and stands of figures representing small groups of fire-fighters and emergency workers.

Individual vehicles represent individual vehicles.
A stand of firefighters or rescue worker models represents a group of 2 or 3 individuals. Using 25mm scale models, we use two figures on a circular base around 25mm across.
Time – each turn is about 5-10 minutes
