Unconditional Surrender! WW2 in Europe is a 2-4 player strategic level game covering the World War II European Theatre. Players make the political decisions and control the military forces of the three major factions that struggled for European dominance and survival.With its emphasis on force projection and decision making, players remain focused on the big picture of managing their front lines and political opportunities. Through simple mechanics and low on-map counter density, players easily handle the strategic action without a myriad of complicated subsystems or tall stacks of counters.Though the focus is on the big picture, Unconditional Surrender! still delivers historical detail.

Hoplite: Warfare in the Greco-Persian Age

Hoplite is the 15th volume in the Great Battles of History Series (GBoH) of games, allowing players to recreate classic battles from the pre-Alexandrian Greco-Persian Age, the heyday of the Hoplite (heavy infantry fighting in packed formation), a period that is often considered the birth of Western Warfare, as opposed to the Persian/Eastern style, which relied on archery, light cavalry and mobility. Exactly how hoplite warfare was fought - what really happened when "the bell rang" - is highly disputed by ancient military historians, even today. Hoplite allows you to test out your theories with 11 of the great battles of this eras, from the Battle of Leuctra, featuring the huge 60-man deep phalanx of Beotarch Epaminondas, to the classic confrontations with the Persian missile-armed troops against the classic Greek hoplite phalanxes using detailed mechanics meant to convey all the possibilities of this style of warfare. From The Hellenic Law of Inertia, to Drift to the Right, to the special capabilities of the Persian Light Cavalry (Harassment and Dispersal) to three different levels of Hoplite advance to Combat (the Run Don't Walk rules) and a whole lot more. We even still have some good old chariots! And you get to fight what was the biggest land battle in European history up until Napoleonic times, the immense Battle of Plataea (truly the deciding engagement of the Greco-Persian Wars): two maps and about 250 combat counters covering The Greek Contingents from 26 City-States under Pausanias, Spartan Regent and General, vs The Persians, Medes, Asians (Bactrians, Scythians, Indians and a whole lot of others) and seven Medized Greek city-states, under Mardonuis, Persian Commander and son-in-law of The Great King, Darius. This package includes Simple GB0H versions of each of these battles along with special rules that highlight the Hoplite style of warfare.Contents4 full-colour countersheets3 backprinted 22" x 34" mapsheets2 Player Aid folio cardsRules BookletScenario BookletSimple GBoH Player AidRout Pt.

Zulus on the Ramparts!

Zulus on the Ramparts! is a solitaire States of Siege Series game of The Battle of Rourke's Drift in South Africa during the Anglo-Zulu War of 1879 (as depicted in the film Zulu). At this battle, approximately 140 British soldiers and auxiliaries defended a small compound (in an area less than half the size of a baseball field) against 4000+ crack Zulu warriors - and won. This action saw more Victoria Crosses awarded (the highest medal for bravery in Britain) to a single regiment at a battle than any other before or since. Its legend has grown to become one of the greatest "stands" ever in military history.In Zulus on the Ramparts!, you control the besieged British forces and the game system controls the attacking Zulus. As events unfold and heroes emerge, can you build up the barricades and fill the breaches before the camp is overrun? As the Zulus relentlessly charge wielding their deadly spears and as British rifles overheat, can you keep cool and make the command decisions necessary to hold your position and repel the onrush of fierce braves until the Relief Column arrives?Components:One 40-Page, Colour Game Rules Booklet82 Game Pieces (some assembly required)50 Action CardsOne 11" x 17" Colour Game Map4 Six Sided Dice
