How it plays

You take charge of one of the major powers and run it through each turn: spend your income on new units, move armies, fleets and aircraft across the map, roll dice to resolve combat, then collect income for the territory you hold. The rules are streamlined, and the refreshed rulebook folds in years of player feedback and errata.

Start here if the bigger editions look intimidating, or keep it around for nights when you want the full sweep of WWII without clearing a whole weekend. It seats two to five commanders and finishes in an evening.
