About the Game

Red Storm is a hypothetical representation of an attack of the Warsaw Pact against NATO in late 20th century West Germany. Units are divisions. Hexes represent areas 10 miles across and game turns represent four days of time. The map extends from Leipzig to Liege and from from Hamburg to Munich. The game requires 3-4 hours to play. Also included are two shortened scenarios: an "Early Game" and "End Game". The Warsaw Pact player receives victory points for cities captured and for NATO units eliminated; the NATO player receives victory points only for destroyed Pact units.

Optional rules are included: French Intervention, Supply, Weather, Tactical Nuclear, East European Revolts, Air Warfare.
