15 - Cactus Throne

15 - Cactus Throne

Volume 4, Number 3 (#15) Cactus Throne

When a coalition of European Powers including the French Empire, Spain and Great Britain agreed to send an expeditionary corps to capture the main port of Vera Cruz, and hold it until Mexico resumed making debt repayments, the British and Spanish monarchs did not reckon with the ambitions of Napoleon III...

19 - Not War But Murder

19 - Not War But Murder

Volume 5, Number 3 (#19) Not War But Murder

On June 3rd, 1864, three full Union corps launched a disjointed attack against well-entrenched Confederates. In just 8 minutes, the attack had petered out. Over 7000 Federals covered the Virginia soil.

A few minutes later, the orders came down to renew the attacks...

21 - Day of the Chariot: Kadesh

Volume 6, Number 1 (#21) Day of the Chariot: Kadesh

Kadesh must be the greatest chariot battle of all time. Sources conflict and disagree, but there may have been as many as 5000 chariots in this twisted, confused, and bloody battle, fought to determine the borders between Egypt and the Hittite confederacy...

22 - Paukenschlag

22 - Paukenschlag

Volume 6, Number 2 (#22) Paukenschlag

It was sort of like "Pearl Harbor" all over again, but worse. Twice as many allied deaths, some 400 ships lost, while the authorities resisted both the proven convoy system and the common-sense approach of simply turning the lights out on coastal cities. It could have been much worse...

26 - There Must Be a Victory

Volume 7, Number 2 (#26) There Must Be a Victory

Sailing ships with broadsides - the last vestige of "wooden ships and iron men." They mingle in a fleet action with iron-plated steamships, speedy armored rams, and a few ships with armored turrets. Mobile Bay? Charleston?

30 - The Lash of the Turk

30 - The Lash of the Turk

Volume 8, Issue 2 (#30) The Lash of the Turk

With the fall of Jerusalem, Europe learned a new synonym for boogeyman—"Turk." The Ottomans recaptured the Holy Land and gradually spread into Europe like a slow tide, including capturing Constantinople and the Balkans. Presuming extreme cruelty, various European leaders called for new crusades, to free fellow Christians from "the Lash of the Turk."

31 - Hungarian Nightmare

31 - Hungarian Nightmare

Volume 8, Issue 3 (#31) Hungarian Nightmare

Hungarian Nightmare is a simulation of one of the most bitter city fights of the Second World War: Budapest. Designer Mark Stille (North Wind Rain, Imperial Sunset and Wintergewitter) brings us the very first game ever to focus entirely on the grim city fight.

Between 26 December 1944 to 12 February 1945, an encircled garrison of some 79,000 German and Hungarian combat troops defended Budapest against 177,000 Soviet troops assisted by a Rumanian corps (of doubtful quality).

32 - Birth of a Legend

32 - Birth of a Legend

Volume 8, Issue 4 (#32) Birth of a Legend

“Lee will never venture upon a bold movement on a large scale.”

-- Maj. Gen. George B. McClellan

The Seven Days Campaign, fought from June 26th to July 2nd, 1862, represented the Union's finest chance to put an early end to the great rebellion, and the Confederacy's best shot at "bagging" an entire Union Army.

Virtually unknown when appointed to command the month before, Gen. Robert E. Lee promptly renamed his force, "The Army of Northern Virginia" - defining a future theater of operations the present defenders of the swampy ground east of Richmond could scarcely imagine. Aggressive and imaginative by nature, Lee summoned virtually every spare unit the South could muster for that rarest of Southern advantages, numerical superiority...
