A Most Bitter Blow - Operation Battleaxe, June 1941
-The famous Tiger Convoy of May 1941 brought over two hundred tanks and fifty Hurricane fighters to Wavell’s command in North Africa – and an increased expectation from Churchill of an imminent offensive. General Wavell had reservations about the operation but reluctantly gave the green light.
After early successes, three days of heavy fighting saw the Allies retreat to their starting points, having lost about 100 tanks. Upon hearing the outcome of the battle, Churchill concluded it was “a most bitter blow”.
Fighting Hard - Battle of Matruh, June 1942
-Following defeat at Gazala, Eighth Army retreated into Egypt in June 1942 with little idea how and where it might stop Rommel. Border defences were quickly rejected as being too weak and so General Ritchie, the Eighth Army commander, sent orders to man the incomplete defences at Matruh.
From the outset, the plans to hold it were confused and then Auchinleck dismissed Ritchie taking command himself. Three days of chaotic fighting occurred in which the Allies grabbed defeat from a possible victory.

The Conquerors: The Romans and The Macedonians is a strategic and tactical simulation of the eastward expansion of the Roman Republic after the Second Punic War, which ended in 200 B.C. Two specific periods are covered: the Second Macedonian War (against Philip V), in which Rome laid its claim for control of Greece (albeit in somewhat defensive posture), and the Syrian War (against Antiochus, the Selecuid king), wherein Rome made its first incursions into the Asian continent. The latter Scenario uses both maps in The Conquerors game (that of The Romans along with that of The Macedonians).
The Macedonians covers the conquests of Alexander the Great.

Armageddon War is a platoon level board-wargame set in the near future. The first module focuses on the Middle East, pitting Israelis against age-old adversaries, and a revitalized Russia against the United States. There are no turns, just continuous activations. The intensity of a unit’s close combat modifier is determined by its morale, and when you fire on a unit, it has the option of taking cover, or returning fire. To hit numbers always remain the same, but the number of dice rolled and the effect of hits vary, all represented by multicolored dice and symbols.
The Battle of Chickasaw Bayou was a grand missed opportunity for the Union Army in its desire to crush the Rebellion. If Union General Sherman had proceeded with haste, the Federals could have captured Vicksburg and delivered a master stroke against the Rebels seven months before Vicksburg surrendered on July 4, 1863. Historically, the Union took four days to launch their "Grand Assault", giving the Confederate defenders in their trenches ample time to receive much-needed reinforcements. Can you do better than Sherman?
The Prelude to Vicksburg game system is from Revolution Games' popular Blind Swords series that utilizes a chit-pull mechanic emphasizing the three "FOW's" of military conflict: Fog of War, Friction of War, and Fortunes of War.
