With easy-to-learn rules, you'll be navigating the grid-based battlefield in no time, using action points and dice rolling to outmaneuver your opponents. Each turn represents just 15 seconds of real-time action, and each square on the grid equals 1.5 meters of space, making for a truly immersive experience.

First published in 1980, this game has stood the test of time, and its simple yet strategic gameplay makes it accessible to new players while still offering depth for experienced gamers.
