Kaiserschlacht: 1918
A two-player wargame covering the decisive 1918 campaign on the Western Front. The full campaign runs from March through November, while three shorter scenarios focus on the German Spring Offensive, the turning of the tide, and the Allied Offensive. Each turn represents one day, with divisions and brigades maneuvering across a map where each hex covers three miles. Players manage movement, supply, artillery, air power, tanks, infiltration tactics, morale, fortifications, trenches, flooding, sea movement, U-boats, and Allied cooperation in a streamlined operational system. The importance of Paris is also represented.
