Description

Fire Team is a tactical level wargame that drops you into the midst of a hypothetical conflict between US and Soviet forces in Western Germany. With a playtime of 240 minutes, you'll have plenty of time to immerse yourself in the action, which is fueled by a unique chit-pull system that determines who gets to act next. This mechanic adds a layer of unpredictability to the game, keeping you on your toes as you navigate the modular board and engage in grid movement and line of sight battles. As a game of normal complexity, Fire Team is accessible to anyone familiar with board games, and its blend of action points, dice rolling, and simulation mechanics makes for a thrilling experience. With individual squads, fire teams, tanks, leaders, and helicopters all represented on the board, you'll need to use your strategic skills to outmaneuver your opponent and emerge victorious in this intense game of modern warfare.
