World at War 92: Narvik 1940

2023-09-19T15:50:06+01:00

Vendor: Strategy & Tactics Press
Type: Periodicals
Price: 41.99

Narvik 1940 is a two-player wargame of low to intermediate complexity that simulates the battles around Narvik, Norway in 1940. To control complexity and present an overall force commander’s view of the battle, the game uses a tactically scaled map and units of maneuver coupled with an operationally scaled turn length. The Allied player is normally on the offensive, trying to clear the Germans from the Narvik area, but the German player has opportunities for counterattacks. The game starts in mid-April, after the Germans seized control of Narvik and just as the Allies have made their initial landings to begin their counteroffensive. Narvik models a battle fought in Arctic conditions with extremes of weather and long daylight hours. There was a chaotic command system on the Allied side and an overextended force on the German.

Strategy & Tactics 342: Carolingian Twilight

2023-08-18T16:40:19+01:00

Vendor: Strategy & Tactics Press
Type: Periodicals
Price: 41.99

Carolingian Twilight: Decline of an Empire AD814 is a two to six-player game covering the decline of the Carolingian Empire following the death of Charlemagne (Charles the Great) in AD 814. The Salic Law of the Franks required that at a man’s death, his property was divided among all his sons, which led to civil wars among Charlemagne’s descendants when the inheritance in question was the Empire itself. From the various wills, wars and treaties dividing and redistributing the Empire during the 800s, emerged the nuclei of the modern states of France, Germany, and Italy. Each scenario depicts the period following a particular division of the empire, with each player taking on the role of one of the heirs. The object of the game is to reunite the Empire under a single ruler, while fending off not only fraternal Frankish rivals, but also the hostile surrounding foreign powers. Each game turn represents 1 year. The map scale is one inch to 75 miles. Each area is an historical region. Each unit represents 100-5,000 soldiers (plus camp followers, etc.).

Components: One 22 x 34-inch game map 280 1/2-inch counters.

Vendor: Strategy & Tactics Press
Type: Periodicals
Price: 41.99

W91 Stalin’s First Victory (1929) & The Battle of Taierzhuang (1938) This game includes two separate and distinct battles. Both battles use many of the same rules and concepts, however for ease of play, the rules are separated into two distinct rule sets. The first set of rules cover Stalin’s First Victory and the second The Battle of Taierzhuang. Both games are low complexity two-player grand tactical games.

Stalin’s First Victory: Covers the five-day campaign between the Soviets and Chinese that determined the outcome of the 1929 Sino-Soviet War. Each hex on the map represents 1.25 miles or 2km. Each game turn represents one day. Units of maneuver are battalions, companies, and regiments.

The Battle of Taierzhuang: Covers the fighting that climaxed in the first (failed) Japanese offensive of 1938 in China. Each hex on the map represents .25 miles or .4km. Each game turn represents two days. Units of maneuver are Japanese infantry battalions and tank companies; and Chinese regiments.

Strategy & Tactics 341: Return to Europe

2023-06-14T14:16:46+01:00

Vendor: Strategy & Tactics Press
Type: Periodicals
Price: 42.99

Return to Europe: Sicily & Italy July–Nov 1943 is a two-player sequel to Desert Fox Deluxe covering the Allied invasion of Sicily and southern Italy. The operation was viewed as only a limited offensive to secure the Mediterranean and force Italy out of the war. The Germans also intended only a limited effort to delay the Allies while a strong defense was established at the far north of the peninsula. Both sides scented greater possibilities in the early going and were drawn into what would become a grueling and expensive campaign. There are two scenarios, each covering all or part of the campaign. One player or team of players commands the Allied forces, the other the Axis. In general terms the Allies are trying to knock Italy out of the war and seize the greatest amount of territory as possible, while the Axis seeks to maintain control of Italian territory for the maximum amount of time. Each game turn represents one month with up to six player impulses in each GT. Each hex represents 6.7 miles (10 kilometers) from side to side. Combat units represent brigades/regiments to companies.

Components: One 22 x 34-inch game map 280 1/2-inch counters.

World at War, Issue #90: The Great European War

2023-05-13T16:38:40+01:00

Vendor: Strategy & Tactics Press
Type: Periodicals
Price: 42.99

Great European War is a two-player game of an alternative World War II in Europe, based on the premise that Adolf Hitler did not order the invasion of the Soviet Union in June 1941. Instead, the Axis goes over to a naval-air offensive against the British with additional operations in North Africa and the Middle East, while waiting for America to enter the war and keeping a watchful eye on Stalin who may intervene.

The game assumes that the Western Allies decide on a Europe First Strategy, diverting forces and logistics from the Pacific. The Axis is under pressure to win the war before economic collapse sets in, the Allies to win before the Japanese seize too much of the Pacific. Given the shift in Axis logistics and planning against the British Empire and the US. only the westernmost Soviet Union is shown on the map, but there is emphasis on North Africa and the Middle East.

There are two players: Axis and Allied (to include the Western Allies and the Soviet Union). Both players can develop orders of battle by expending Mobilization Points. The game shows the war in Europe during the early and mid-war years before the full Allied buildup. Both sides will be fighting a war which is markedly different from that fought in the historical event. The game ends in 1943, the time when the Western Allies originally planned to return to Europe.

Components: 22x34 inch map, 280 1/2-inch die-cut counters.

This issue examines Guderian’s role in the first half-year of the Russian campaign, in the process opening a window onto the failure of Barbarossa as a whole.

Strategy & Tactics 340 French and Indian War

2023-04-14T17:00:01+01:00

Vendor: Strategy & Tactics Press
Type: Periodicals
Price: 43.99

French and Indian War Battles is two player grand tactical system for simulating battles in North America during the French & Indian War (1754-60). While these battles often involved small armies for the era, they decided the fate of the continent. This game includes three scenarios; Lake George (Sep 1755), Fort Oswego (Aug 1756), and Quebec (Sep 1759). Each battle has its own map, special rules and counters representing the military formations which participated in the original action. Each game turn represents from 10 minutes to one hour depending on the pace of operations. Each hex represents 50 to 150 yards, depending on the scenario. Combat units represent anything from a wing (two or more companies) to a battalion. Each combat strength point represents 40 to 150 men, depending on the quality of training and weaponry. Each artillery unit represents two to six guns. Leaders represent a single great commander plus staff.

Components: One 22 x 34 inch map 176 5/8 inch counters.

World at War, Issue #89: The Crimean Campaign, 1941 - 42

2023-04-08T11:56:34+01:00

Vendor: Strategy & Tactics Press
Type: Periodicals
Price: 42.99

The Crimean Campaign, 1941 - 42 (TCC) is a strategic level two-player wargame (with strong operational undertones) of low-intermediate complexity covering the fighting across the peninsula that climaxed with the German capture of Sevastopol.

The action simulated in the game took place historically between 28 October 1941 and 4 July 1942. The first date marks the German entry into the Crimea via the Perekop Isthmus, while the second marks the end of organized Soviet resistance across the whole peninsula. Those nine calendar months are divided into chronologically varied and unequal numbers of turns. That approach allows for the convenient simulation of the ebbs and flows in the action that took place due to bad weather and logistical and command-control constraints.

The Perekop Isthmus fight, which took place from 24 September through 27 October, just off-map to the north, is not included in the game because it took place across terrain too restrictive to allow for maneuver by either side. At this scale it would have come down to how lucky the German player got in rolling his inescapably low-range and mid-range initial frontal attacks. So that episode is considered to have taken place as the last act of the Dniepr River campaign rather than the first act in the Crimean campaign.

Components: 22x34 inch map, 228 9/16-inch die-cut counters.
