Description
Ambon: Burning Sun & Little Seagulls is a wargame that drops you into the intense World War II battle for the Indonesian island of Ambon. Designed by Marc Figueras and released in 2021, this game is perfect for two players looking for a challenge that's easy to learn but packed with depth. With a playtime of 60 to 120 minutes, you'll have plenty of time to dive into the action, using dice rolling and grid movement to outmaneuver your opponent. The game features a hexagon grid and variable set-up, along with secret unit deployment and zone of control mechanics, making each battle unique and unpredictable. As you navigate the complexities of combat, you'll use movement points and consult the ratio/combat results table to determine the outcome of your attacks, all set against the backdrop of one of the war's most pivotal and lesser-known campaigns.
