Next War: Poland

Europe is on edge. In Next War: Poland a war breaks out that nobody wanted, but that comes anyway. Russia and its allies invade Poland and the Baltic states, while NATO hurriedly sends troops to the front. You are at the helm of one of the two sides and decide how this struggle unfolds. The question hanging over everything: can NATO stop the advance, or will Poland be overrun? This is the fourth title in the Next War series from GMT Games and it brings the battlefield to Europe for the first time. You play out a war set in the near future, with armies that are well trained and equipment that really matters. The Russian 6th and 20th Armies push forward, while NATO responds with the Allied Rapid Reaction Corps and the countries that answer the call of Article 5. Every choice counts, every move has consequences. Next War: Poland is not a game for a quick Sunday afternoon.
