Description

Battle for China is a board game that drops you into the midst of World War II, where you'll take on the role of either the Chinese military, Imperial Japan, or even the Chinese Communist forces. With two to three players, you'll navigate the complexities of war, using area movement and dice rolling to outmaneuver your opponents. The game comes with a detailed map of China, divided into multiple areas, each representing a province, and abstract units that represent corps, armies, divisions, and brigades. This game is perfect for those familiar with board games, as the rules are of normal complexity, making it easy to learn and dive into. With a playtime of 360 minutes, you'll be fully immersed in the War of Resistance against Japan, from the initial invasion in 1937 to the end of 1941. Designed by Brian Train and first published in 1999, Battle for China is a classic wargame that will put your strategic skills to the test.
