VAE VICTIS # 151 Capture Tito

1-914151

Wargame of Operation Rosselsprung (1944) features the first phase of the operation led by the airborne troops of the SS-fallschirmjager battalion 500 to eliminate Tito. This game system of low to medium complexity was developed for the Raid series and is designed for solo play; the artificial intelligence automatically manages the Yugoslav actions while the player manages the German actions.

The map represents a series of points, between one and several hundred meters apart. A game turn equals two day-time hours or five 5 night-time hours. The scenario begins at 6:00 on 25 May 1944 and finishes at 12:00 on 26 May for 12 game turns -- a full game is expected to take about 90 minutes. The front side of the die-cut counters represents full strength -- 35-40 German paratroopers, a company of 20-100 Yugoslav partisans, an officer, two anti-air machine guns, or two Italian tanks.
