Description

The Chosin Few is a solitaire wargame that drops you into the midst of one of the most intense battles of the Korean War, the Battle of the Chosin Reservoir. As the commander of the United Nations X-Corps, you'll be controlling a mix of US Marine and Army forces, including the 1st Marine Division and 7th Infantry Division, as they fight for survival against overwhelming Chinese forces. With a playtime of just 45 minutes and easy-to-learn rules, you can dive right into the action and experience the thrill of this pivotal moment in history. The game's AI system puts you in a desperate situation, surrounded by Chinese forces with no clear way to even the odds. But that's what makes The Chosin Few so compelling - it's a true underdog story, where you'll need to use all your strategic skills to inflict maximum damage on the enemy and emerge victorious. With a simple yet effective mechanic that combines action points and dice rolling, you'll be fully immersed in the battle, making tough decisions and adapting to the changing situation on the ground. Designed by Nathan Hansen and published in 2016, The Chosin Few is a gripping and intense wargame that's perfect for solo players looking for a challenge.
