Red Horde 1920

An operational-level wargame covering the Polish-Soviet War during the summer of 1920. Soviet forces advance westward with massed rifle divisions and the 1st Cavalry Army, while Polish Legion veterans and the national army defend against the offensive. Ukrainian, Lithuanian, Hungarian, and Red Polish units also enter the conflict. Players maneuver brigades and divisions across a map of eastern Poland and western Byelorussia, managing the shifting front and fighting through the campaign that culminates in the Battle of Warsaw. The game includes 176 counters, a 22x17-inch map, a rulebook, and two player aid cards; two six-sided dice are required.
