Developed to portray the mechanized battlefields of a later generation, F\u0026amp;M stresses the use of fire support to generate breakthroughs, followed by a rapid penetration by mobile reserves.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIwo Jima was a critical point on the flight path of US bombers from their Saipan bases to their Japanese targets. The island would be a refuge for malfunctioning or damaged bombers coming or going. An obvious target for a US amphibious assault, the Japanese had reinforced the garrison and dug miles of tunnels the length and breadth of the island. Their goal was to inflict maximum casualties on the Americans to force them to reconsider the seemingly inevitable invasion of Japan. The resulting battle was brutal, even by the standards of the Pacific War.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn Iwo, the Japanese fought from within an extensive tunnel network, neutralizing the usual fire support effects and limiting maneuver to the US approach to each fortified position. The Japanese units are hidden, their strength revealed only at the instant of combat, so the US player must mass against a position to play it safe, using fire support to suppress the defenders and so reduce attacker casualties (a key victory condition]. On the other hand, the US player must clear the island to win, and time is not on his side. Sooner or later he must take risks to push the battle forward. Taking some terrain, like Mount Suribachi, is critical to weakening the island's defense.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Japanese defense is handled by a short, simple set of priorities when conducting Japanese bombardments, punctuated with an occasional Banzai charge. A weak attack against a bunker may only displace the defenders to another position, where they will have to be attacked again. The rules include an option for a two-player game, with a second player handling the\u003cbr\u003eJapanese forces.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNote: This is a SOLITAIRE game with two-player rules included.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGame Scale:\u003cbr\u003eGame Turn: 2 days\u003cbr\u003eHex: 350 yards \/ 300 meters\u003cbr\u003eUnits: Company to Battalion\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGame Inventory:\u003cbr\u003eOne 17 x 22\" full color map\u003cbr\u003eOne dual-side printed countersheet (100 1\/2\" counters)\u003cbr\u003eOne 4-page Iwo rulebook\u003cbr\u003eOne 8-page Fire \u0026amp; Movement Folio Standard rulebook\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSolitaire Playability: Very High\u003cbr\u003eComplexity Level: Low\u003cbr\u003ePlayers: 1 (Solitaire game, but 2 or more can play)\u003cbr\u003ePlaying Time: 1-2 hours\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlayers will need to include one 6-sided die for play.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Decision Games (I)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":17427385712691,"sku":"17427385712691","price":28.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic1715072.jpg?v=1578609526"},{"product_id":"acre-the-third-crusade-opens","title":"Acre: The Third Crusade Opens","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" padding=\"1\" margin=\"1\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/chris-perello\"\u003eChris Perello\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/all\/decision-games-(i)\"\u003eDecision Games (I)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Age\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 and up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr id=\"bgg-row\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Info\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd id=\"bgg-column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"bgg-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e130670\/acre-third-crusade-opens\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"bgg-forum-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003ehttp:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgame\/130670\/acre-third-crusade-opens\/forums\/63\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Third Crusade Opens\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt was the destruction of the Crusader army by Saladin at Hattin in 1187 that had led to the collapse of the Crusader kingdoms in the Levant, including the loss of Jerusalem. Guy of Lusignan, the erstwhile ruler of the city, appealed to the Europeans for aid, which soon arrived. But without waiting for the three main Crusader armies — led by King Philip of France, Emperor Frederick Barbarossa, and Richard I of England ­— Guy set out to capture Acre on the Levantine coast. His first assault was repulsed and Guy settled in for a siege. Meanwhile, Saladin gathered a portion of his army and rode in to lift the siege. After preliminary skirmishing, the opposing armies met east of the city on 4 October.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcre uses the new Battles of the Medieval World system, a variation on the venerable Battles of the Ancient World system. The battle is dominated by masses of heavy cavalry and disciplined lines of heavily-armed and armored men-at-arms. Swirling around these forces are masses of foot- and horse-archers, whose purpose is to disrupt the heavy formations and make them easy prey for their counterparts. Using the classic Combat Results Table, the fighting is close and bloody until the morale of one side weakens. Once a line breaks, the victor must pursue ruthlessly to prevent a rally. Leaders enhance combat power and restore broken formations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt Acre, the Crusaders have more combat power, but must maintain a long line to protect their siege works. The Arabs are quick but light, and must find a way to isolate portions of the Crusader army and defeat it in detail. Victory will go to the player who deploys his army to best utilize his strengths and take advantage of enemy weaknesses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGame Contents:\u003cbr\u003e•    17 x 22” map\u003cbr\u003e•    100 die-cut counters\u003cbr\u003e•    One Standard Rules booklet for this series\u003cbr\u003e•    One Exclusive Rules booklet for this title\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e(source: Decision games website)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Decision Games (I)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32047201779763,"sku":"32047201779763","price":28.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic1432579.jpg?v=1589571960"},{"product_id":"desert-fox-deluxe","title":"Desert Fox Deluxe","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" padding=\"1\" margin=\"1\"\u003e\n   \u003ctbody\u003e\n      \u003ctr\u003e\n         \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n         \u003ctd\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/richard-h-berg\"\u003eRichard H.

The map scale is 10 miles per hex, turns cover one month each, while units are mostly regiments and brigades, with specialist battalions and a few Italian and Vichy French divisions. The turn sequence is built around a pair of move-fight impulses for each player, with separate phases for events altering the situation (like the frequent Commonwealth campaigns elsewhere in the Middle East), application of air and naval power, and initiative determination. Logistics is the paramount consideration given the vast distances. Fast and furious action alternates with quiet periods as both sides strive to build up forces and supplies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eComponents: Three 17\" x 22\", two 8.5\" x 22\", one 11\" x 17\" map \u0026amp; 560 counters\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eS\u0026amp;T #300, August 2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBoxed edition in 2019 added cards to better depict the impact of off map events (like Greece, and East Africa) on reinforcement and withdrawals.  20 cards for the Axis and 28 cards for the Allies.

The alarmed Confederates sent Earl Van Dorn to coordinate the fractious Southern forces to repel the Yankee invaders. Van Dorn, aggressive but careless, launched a quick offensive that nearly trapped Sam Curtis’ Union Army of the Southwest, until Curtis extricated his army and placed it in a well-entrenched position on the plateau of Pea Ridge. After their rapid march north, the Confederates were exhausted and out of supplies, but Van Dorn nevertheless set them on a grueling night march around Curtis’ position.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePea Ridge uses the Musket \u0026amp; Saber system to accurately portray warfare during the American Civil War. All the primary facets of the muzzle-loading era are included. The combat system rewards intuitive play without the need for rifle-counting. There are substantial differences between infantry, artillery, and cavalry: Infantry, tough and resilient, bear the brunt of battle. Artillery can smash attacks or open holes in enemy lines, but is vulnerable and brittle. Cavalry is weak in stand-up combat, but crucial for pursuit and reconnaissance. All units are susceptible to rout when weakened, and the fortunes of war can intervene at any time, so players must maintain reserves. Leaders provide an important supplement to unit capabilities, and armies must protect their headquarters and logistical tail or risk deterioration of their mobility and combat power.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWinning the battle depends upon deployment, thoughtful maneuver to concentrate at the key points, the proper coordination of arms, careful use of leaders and special units, and an understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of each army.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Decision Games (I)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40555863900211,"sku":"40555863900211","price":0.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic1432564.jpg?v=1651802278"},{"product_id":"vimy-ridge-arras-diversion","title":"Vimy Ridge: Arras Diversion","description":"\u003ctable padding=\"1\" margin=\"1\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/eric-r-harvey\"\u003eEric R.

Numerous assaults had been made against, all failures. In 1917, the tasked of taking the ridge was given to the newly-created Canadian Corps. Backed up by a huge concentration of artillery and aircraft, and benefiting from rehearsals down to company level, the Canadians pulled off one of the most successful attacks of the year.
