MiG Alley Air War Over Korea 1951: Mini Game Series (Ziplock)

MiG Alley is a two-player game covering the air battles over North Korea in 1951. One player controls the UN forces and must carry out a series of bombing raids to knock out key targets in North Korea. The other player controls the Communist forces, including many of the new MiG-15 jet fighters, and attempts to inflict prohibitive losses on the UN.The game uses the Air Wars series rules. Aircraft are rated according to historical type. Fuel consumption is factored into the plane types, so a player must manage the available forces to ensure enough combat power is ready when needed. Each player has a unique set of campaign cards generating movement, combat bonuses, historical events, and reinforcements. Playing the right card at the right time is crucial to winning.

Khe Sanh '68: Mini Game Series (Ziplock)

Khe Sanh '68 places you in command of United States and South Vietnamese (ARVN) forces in the campaign to relieve the USMC firebase at Khe Sanh during the Vietnam War. The historical campaign was something of a race against time as the US high command feared that the North Vietnamese were going to attempt to overrun the base. All resources put into the Khe Sanh fight, however, were subtracted from those available to deal with the Tet Offensive elsewhere. Your mission is to extract maximum communist losses while minimizing the allied effort.The game uses the Cold War Blitz series rules, a solitaire game system. You command the US and ARVN units, and have a deck of cards to enhance your unit capabilities. A second deck of cards, drawn randomly one at a time, controls communist (OPFOR) activities. Combat is resolved with a quasi-tactical system with opposing units firing at one another.

Various opportunities and technologies will be made available to you to ease your path.Your options are laid out very clearly on your own display. You expend your merchant cubes to perform various actions, which will gain you goods and other benefits. Goods can be sold  or used in more specific ways, as you wish. Gold will widen your options by making it easier to upgrade your ships and take advantage of extra actions.In a return to games of a more complex nature, Martin Wallace has fashioned something of a brain burner, more suitable for those who like depth and complexity in their games. It is also another game that employs the talents of Peter Dennis, who has produced some of his best artwork here. With very little luck in the game it will be skill and planning that will win the day.'Ships' is designed for two to four players and should take around 120 minutes to play.
