Description
Chinese Farm is a classic board game that dives into the intense Egyptian-Israeli combat of the 1973 war, and it's still engaging players to this day, even after its release back in 1975. Designed by Howard Barasch, this game is all about strategy and simulation, using simple yet effective rules that are easy to learn, making it accessible to new players. Players take turns navigating a hexagon grid, using dice rolling and a combat results table to determine the outcomes of battles. With a playtime of around 90 minutes, you and your opponent will be immersed in the action, using zone of control and grid movement to outmaneuver each other. As a wargame focused on modern warfare, Chinese Farm offers a unique glimpse into a pivotal moment in history, and its straightforward mechanics make it a great introduction to the world of simulation games.
