This game is deceptively simple in its easy play; however
I have been playing war games and simulations for over 45 years.  I have collected over 300+ war games and have played them all with both friends old and new.  This game is deceptively simple in its easy play; however, it requires sound strategy to win.  The rules are easy to learn, but that's when the fun starts as there are so many possible strategies to choose from.<br /><br />The game components and board are high quality and nicely done.  This demonstrates real commitment by the designer, to hold out for the best.<br /><br />I will need more time to thoroughly evaluate this game, but I believe that out of the 300+, it will land firmly in my top ten.
