Description

This is a small game--60 counters, a hex map less than a letter-sized piece of paper--depicting a "What If?" scenario from WW2. In this game, the Allies launch an attack on a (never-built in reality) last-ditch defensive line high in the Alps. The Allies have overwhelming numerical superiority; the only hope for the Germans is to stave off elimination long enough to win a separate peace with the West. (Adapted from the introduction to the rules, which appeared in Panzerschreck Magazine 4.)
