Description

A 2 player game of combat in North Africa during World War ROMMEL'S WAR is a 2 player game about the first year of the war in the desert, from March 1941 to January 1942. One player takes the role of Rommel in command of Axis forces, and the other player takes the role of the British commanders (Wavell and Auchinleck). The game only has 8 pages of rules and a playing time of 1 hour or less so you will be picking the sand from your shorts in no time in this exciting, fast paced game of decision in the desert. The 2 player game combat system does not use dice for combat. Combat is based on what side has the most strength AND best types of units present in the battle. Players must decide what and when to commit their units to the battle. Keeping supply lines open and forward units in supply is a key element in the game. Also, unit speed plays a role for attacking and defending units and retreats.
