The campaigns in northern China, 1931 to 1937. This two-player operational-strategic wargame covers Japanese and Chinese operations in Manchukuo, Menjiang, and northern China.

Ground units range from Japanese divisions and brigades to Chinese and allied armies and corps, while air units represent sorties assigned to missions. Soviet intervention is also possible.
