Nightmare Island: The Battle for Biak Island, May-August, 1944. By early 1944 General MacArthur feared the upcoming US Navy offensive to take the Marianas to the north could lead to a strategic switch in offensive operations that would jeopardize his ambition and promise to retake the Philippines (as well as taking away the spotlight his operations commanded to this point in the war). In early 1944 MacArthur proposed the capture of BiakIsland to not only end the New Guinea campaign, but also to provide a forward base of operations for his planned return to the Philippine archipelago.

No Pasaran! The Battle of La Coruña Road, January 3-16, 1937.

- Lances and Steel (new from High Flying Dice Games)
Lances and Steel is a war game simulation of the battle fought near the town of Mokra during the 1939 invasion of Poland by Nazi Germany. The area was held by the Polish 7th Infantry Division and the Wolynska Cavalry Brigade supported by the Smialy armored train and the 21st Tank battalion. The German attack here sought to separate the Polish Lodz and Krakow Armies and effect a breakthrough to the Polish rear areas. The first major battle of WWII was fought here.

- Guards and Martyrs (new from High Flying Dice Games)
Guards and Martyrs: The Battle for Basra, December 1986-April 1987. Dubbed “Karbala 5” the Iranians amassed much of their Revolutionary Guard formations supported by new weapons secretly purchased from the “Great Satan” USA (via the illegal Iran-Contra affair) as well as North Korea. A feint attack north of the battlefield, Karbala 6, by much of the Iranian armored force would tie up Iraq’s reserves. The resulting battle for Basra was one of the largest and bloodiest battles fought in the war, with both sides fighting with all they had. In the end the battle for Basra would prove just as indecisive as the larger war, with neither side able to claim a clear victory. [Forum]
- To Rule the Waves (new from High Flying Dice Games)
To Rule The Waves is an introductory level wargame simulation on the British Navy’s bombardment of the Egyptian Forts at Alexandria in 1882, as well as several “what if” naval battles that could have occurred amongst the European powers in the Mediterranean during the 1880s. This decade was marked by peace amongst the Imperialist nations, but there were events that “rocked the boat” and could very easily have led to conflict; especially in Mediterranean Sea that for ages has been the nexus of commerce as well as conflict. This decade was also marked by tremendous innovation in warship design and tactics. [Forum]
