Spearhead
A World War II miniatures rules set focused on division-level tactics and the command of multi-battalion forces. Players prepare orders before the battle, then manage reserves and adjust plans within the limits of their troops and communications. The rules emphasize realistic command restrictions rather than freely issuing new orders during play, with scenarios covering the Eastern and Western Fronts, North Africa, and other theaters.
