DEATH IN THE TRENCHES: 2nd Edition

1-COM1068

WWI strategic-level wargame covers the entire war, in all theaters, on an army level with divisional formations handled on an off-map display that minimizes map clutter. Map covers from UK to Egypt and Middle East and from Tunisia to Russia.

The game relies on simple mechanics that eliminate production bean counting and complicated combat results tables. Designed with the narrative gamer in mind, its more than 500 random events draw you into the global nightmare of 1914-1918, while its pulse system of alternating player moves ensures very little down time for the non-phasing player.
