Storm Over Arnhem Strategy War Game by Avalon Hill (1981)
The game simulates the ferocious battle for the Arnhem Bridge on September 18-21, 1944 in Operation Market Garden
where a Force of 700 British Paratroopers of the 2nd Parachute Regiment under Col John Frost desperately held on for 5 Days in fierce Street Fighting
The game begins with the British holding the area around the bridge, surrounded by the Germans. They try to hold out for as long as they can.
Each full turn covers 8 hours and includes many mini-turns (or impulses). Each impulse, the player can move or fire a small number units.
Once moved or fired, the units are "committed" and cannot move or fire again until the next turn.
Combat is handled by calculating attack and defense values with each side adding the roll of 2 dice.
The difference (if the attacker has the higher total) in final point values is the number of casualty points the defender must lose by retreating or destroying units.
The Game is easy to Learn but very difficult to Master and thus has you returning to the Gaming Table again and again.
The Game is for 2 Players,Aged 12 Years to Adult.
The Game is Complete and the Contents are in Very Good Condition.
The Box is also in Very Good Condition for its Age.
