About the Game

Another in the series from the "Age of Battles" line of games, with the excellent components and production values as the previous ones. There are translations for the Rules in English(from Russian), as well as their superb MINIS included, and the many other 'notable' Terrain 'features' with these. A very decent approach to bringing the 'Army Men' boxes into gameplay, as most of US are desirous for them to become more actively involved.
