{"product_id":"cold-war-battles-2-pentomic-wurzburg-kabul-79","title":"Cold War Battles 2: Pentomic Wurzburg \u0026 Kabul '79","description":"\u003cp\u003eCold War Battles 2: Pentomic Wurzburg \u0026amp; Kabul '79, (CWB2) presents a low-to-intermediate complexity  operational simulation of campaigns that were fought – or that could have been fought – during that long period of military history, 1946-1989. The playing pieces represent the actual units that participated, or could have participated, in those fights. The maps represent the terrain over which those units fought or could have fought.\n\nTwo games are included: Kabul ’79 (K’79), covering the Soviet seizure of the Afghan capital in that year; and Wurzburg Pentomic (WP), the Soviets versus the US in Germany in the mid-to-late 1950s. There are two players in each game. In K’79 one player controls the Soviets and the other commands the Afghans plus optional ‘what-if’ US reinforcements. In WP one player controls the Soviets, the other runs US and West German forces. Both games use a main body of shared rules, and each also has its own special instructions. Designed by Joseph Miranda.\n\nManeuver units include: infantry, elite infantry, air assault, airmobile infantry, mechanized Infantry, armor, armored cavalry, recon, special operations, security, military police, engineers, guerillas and headquarters. Ranged artillery types include: field artillery, self-propelled artillery, assault guns, rocket artillery and air defense artillery.\nMost units are battalions or regiments, but the entire counter-mix has units within it as large as divisions and as small as companies. Units are one-step, with their reverse sides used to show their “untried” status.\n\nRules cover: random events, reinforcements, bombardment, suppression, air power, air mobility, atomic weapons, paratroops, recon, screening, special forces, guerrillas, fire control and much more.\n\nCold War Battles 2: Pentomic Wurzburg \u0026amp; Kabul '79 was published in Strategy \u0026amp; Tactics magazine #263  Jul\/Aug 2010.\n\nPentomic Wurzburg Game Scale:\nGame Turn : 12 hours\nHex: 1 mile \/ 1.6 kilometers\nUnits: Company to Brigade\n\nKabul '79 Game Scale:\nGame Turn: 1 day\nHex: 273 yards \/ 250 meters\nUnits: Company to Brigade\n\nGame Inventory:\nOne 22 x 34\" six color mapsheet\nOne dual-side printed countersheet (280 1\/2\" counters)\nOne 16-page Cold War Battles 2 rules booklet\n\nSolitaire Playability: High\nComplexity Level: Medium-Low\nPlayers: 2 or more\nPlaying Time: 2-8\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1–2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlay time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 240 min\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComplexity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.33 \/ 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesigners:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ty Bomba, Joseph Miranda\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYear:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2010\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Decision Games (I)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51927374954712,"sku":"SB-FDEF60148260-BOARD-GAMES-UNK-SEALED","price":0.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/6271\/0488\/files\/poamz6kkr8txx533t3h0js5mxaj6.jpg?v=1785466670","url":"https:\/\/abbyboardwalkstore.com\/products\/cold-war-battles-2-pentomic-wurzburg-kabul-79","provider":"Boardwalk Cafe \u0026 Games","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
