Empires and Alliances

It is August, 1914. World events are spiralling out of control. The major powers of Europe are mobilising. the Empires and their Alliances are going to war! The major powers have been developing their war plans for years and now the full force of arms will be brought to bear like never before. War on an industrial scale has begun.Most of the national leaders and thier generals expected a short war. Hence, the phrase "Home Before The Leaves Fall". In the 1914 scenario both players have an opportunity to achieve that elusive quick victory. Can the Germans obtain the upper hand in France before the Russians overwhelm the outnumbered Central Powers forces in the east?Empires & Alliances has a simple game system with minimal rules so it is a large but very playable game. The Sequence Of Play features a reinforcement phase followed by a Supply Phase, then a Movement Phase and a Combat Phase. Reinforcements continue throughout the war. The basic unit is the corps with a few divisions. There are infantry, cavalry, and army level artillery units. Tanks, air, and Stosstruppen begin to arrive in 1917. Units have historical corps and division IDs.Empires & Allies differs from most World War I games as it is relatively easy to attack, though combat tends to be bloody. COmbast uses an odds-based CRT with strength multipliers and DRMs, all resolved with a ten-sided die. Players are challenged to allocate their forces and plan their offensives to exhaust their enemies before they themselves are exhausted.For the 1914 starting scenarios, players set up their armies in their historical mobilisation sectors. Also, an optional rule for Flexible Mobilisation allows players to explore various possible openings to the war.Will you get your troops "Home Before the Leaves Fall", or will your "Empires & Alliances suffer through the years of industrialised war?COMPONENTS:Map: 3 at 22"x34" and 1 at 22"x11"Counters: 4 sheets (896 9/16")Aids: 4 player aids, 3 Order of Battle cardsBooklets: 1 32pp Rules and Scenario bookDice: 1 ten-sided dice

Battle Hymn Volume One: Gettysburg and Pea Ridge

Battle Hymn Series One:Battle Hymn is Compass Games' new brigade-level system for medium to large American Civil War battles. The designer's previous game on this topic, Victory Games' Across Five Aprils was nominated for Best Pre-20th Century Wargame. Battle Hymn expands upon that game and retains its basic simplicity. Battle Hymn includes an innovative combat system that elevates realism, while at the same time making it less luck prone and more fun to play.Gettysburg: The Tide Turns. It is the largest battle ever fought in North America and it resulted in a strategic defeat for the South. It could have gone the other way. There are no "idiot" rules in the game. You have your army, you control it, can you do better than Lee? Can you stop Lee? There are six scenarios: Day One, Day Two, Day Three, and the Campaign Game, plus smaller scenarios for Pickett's Charge (3 turns), and Little Round Top (3 turns). The smaller scenarios can be played in an hour, Days 1, 2, and 3 take three to four hours, while the campaign can take much longer, though it may end early.Pea Ridge: Missouri is Ours! This was the largest battle fought west of the Mississippi River. If the Confederates win, it is likely that Missouri will join the Confederacy. It was fought over two days, with the Confederates circling behind the Union and launching a surprise attack. What could go wrong? For a start, they had three days of hard marching, it was freezing cold, and they left their supply wagons over seven miles from the battlefield. Even though the Confederates outnumbered the Union 3 to 2, they lost decisively. But it could have gone the other way. There are no "idiot" rules in this game either. There are four scenarios: Day One, Day Two Retreat, Day Two Stand, and The Campaign Game, lasting from one hour to five hours.Special Features:Innovative combat systemwith two combat Rounds per Combat Turn, based on recent historical research and the best practices used in miniatures games.Chit-pull system but the player with the initiative - if there is one - controls when his Combat Turn occurs. Movement is by chit-pull, making it harder to create perfect plans.High solitaire playability. Due to the Chit-pull system, plus the use of "At Random" rules to make important decisions, the game is excellent for solitaire play.
