Experience squad-level combat during the Soviet-Afghan War. This card-driven hex-and-counter game pits Afghan Mujahideen forces against the Soviet Red Army, with players directing rifle squads, specialists, heroes, armored vehicles, and attack helicopters. Card-activated events, helicopter operations, and varied unit abilities create tactical decisions across scenarios featuring weapons and equipment such as RPG teams, Spetsnaz, T-55 and T-62 tanks, BMPs, BTRs, and Hind helicopters.
