Description
Air & Armor is a simulation of near future combat in a Warsaw Pact invasion of West Germany, taking place on 50 miles of the Inter-German border near Wurzburg and Schweinfurt in the US VII Corps sector. Units represent companies, battalions and regiments supported by a wide range of helicopters and attack aircraft.Instead of granting U.S. units combat strengths far higher than the Soviet strengths to compensate for inferior numbers, the game emphasizes the doctrinal and command differences between the opposing armies that provide NATO with the force multiplier it needs to survive. Players operate asymmetric command systems, and each is challenged to get the most out of his system. The game system also creates a true 'fog of war' environment in which deception, outguessing your opponent and tactical surprise can pay off handsomely.Components: 1 22x34 inch full color map 600 full color playing pieces 3 full color track displays 32 page Standard Rules booklet 24 page Advanced Rules booklet 1 decimal die 1 storage tray. - BoardGameGeek
