Description
An SDC 'Bonus Game' within Conflict Magazine #7. "Although the Alamo has been enshrined in American history, it is a subject that is as suitable for a wargame as the 1940 invasion of Denmark, or the 1945 Battle of Berlin. However, such one-sided episodes CAN be translated to the game board..." One 17" x 22" mustard yellow map containing the Alamo (divided into 6 areas) and the game rules. American set-up uses inverted counters (7 cannon, 7 riflemen, 10 dummies, and 2 leaders) vs. 18 Mexican infantry and Santa Anna. Played for 3 turns.
