About the Game

The Battle of Waterberg (Ohamakari) is a low to moderate complexity tactical level board-wargame set during the German Herero War of 1905. It covers the German attack against the Hereros in German-occupied Southwest Africa.

August 11, 1904. The Herero forces have gathered near the Waterberg Mountains, far away from the German supply trains. The thick thorn bushes provide a natural defense. The Germans plan to attack from several different sides of the Herero camp to annihilate the Hereros once and for all. The Hereros have other plans: to ambush the Germans and exploit their numerical superiority. The stage is set...

The game takes about 90 minutes to play. One player commands the German forces and the other player commands the various Herero forces. Cards vary the game play.
