Description
Field Command is a strategic board game where two players clash in a battle of wits and tactics. Published in 1991, this classic game was designed by Walter E. Johnston, IV, and has been thrilling players for decades. With easy-to-learn rules, players can dive right into the action, controlling an army of 40 units, including artillery, cavalry, infantry, a general, and guerillas. The game takes place on an 11x11 grid, featuring forests, plains, and varying elevations, which all impact the outcome of battles. Players move up to 12 units simultaneously, using a rock-paper-scissors system to resolve conflicts, modified by unit rank and terrain. The goal is simple: remove the other player's general from the battlefield. With 180 minutes of playtime, Field Command is a immersive and challenging experience that will keep you on the edge of your seat as you outmaneuver your opponent and claim victory.
