| Brief Description | Complete yet quick-playing set of rules
for battalion- and regimental-scale armored combat. The basic game provides
the rules for tanks, infantry, and artillery. The advanced rules add
engineers, air support, and airborne and amphibious operations. Data sheets and
charts cover 140 U.S, British, German, Japanese, French and Italian
vehicles. According to the designer, battalion-sized
actions can be fought in about 20 turns (roughly four hours).
