Perfect for making teamwork something special. Either you have to cooperate with your teammate(s) or everything will come crashing down like a jenga tower.
This board is a faithful recreation of Axes and Allies, and it plays very similar to that game too.
You have to have a team that is willing to cooporate, or your sunk. You have to understand the advantages and disadvantages both sides have, or your sunk - you have to have some good rolls (although I haven't been frustrated by a lack of luck) - but if their bad, your sunk.
Once you have learned all of those things - and the ins and outs of Simulgear, which definitely has its basic strategy elements, this board is very rewarding.
It harmonizes teamwork skills and your ability to synthesis huge amounts of information with strategy and direct player to player competition. Exactly the kind of thing one might look for in this game.
The graphics are a little on the chunky side for my taste - and that is a bit intimidating, as well as the learning curve is really steep.
Otherwise this map is super fun to play! If your looking for a game with lots of meat, this is your choice. It's almost perfect.
Top-notch execution, a real classic that paved the way for large tactical SimulGear maps and uneven teams. I always enjoy a round on this board. Kudos to Toaster!
