1918: Death on the Rails

It is late 1918. German power has fallen and an exciting time begins in Estonia. When Red Army units advance on the border town of Narva, the Estonian War of Independence starts. In 1918: Death on the Rails you step right into this piece of history and you decide how the story goes on. This is a meaty wargame for two players, in which you move your units across a map full of hexes using blocks. One player takes the Estonian troops, the other the Russian ones. You try to be the first to reach the objectives of the scenario, while your opponent is planning exactly the same thing. Every move counts, and the tension rises as the fronts come closer together. One of the finest things about this game is the role of the Estonian armoured trains. While playing you notice how important those trains were in this period. 1918: Death on the Rails is made for two players aged 14 and up and offers about two hours of battle, choices and thinking together about the best road to victory.
