World at War: Eisenbach Gap

A platoon-level tactical simulation of a Cold War Warsaw Pact attack into West Germany in the mid-1980s. Players command infantry, tanks, and support weapons, manage command and control, and execute movement, ranged fire, opportunity fire, assaults, and overruns. Rules cover unit types such as self-propelled mortars and thin-skinned vehicles, missile/ATGM effects including depletion, and the unpredictability of battlefield command. Scenarios emphasize delaying actions, flanking, and combined-arms coordination. The system is modular, letting players apply the same core rules across additional linked modules.
