  1. Battle for Germany

    italic title Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Battle for Germany is a board wargame which simulates operations in Germany during 1945 in World War II . It was designed by Jim Dunnigan James F. Dunnigan and originally published by Simulations Publications SPI in 1975 as an insert in Strategy & Tactics magazine, issue 50. Popular for its innovative design, the game was revamped and released by Decision Games , which acquired the rights to many SPI games after that company went bankrupt in 1982. Battle for Germany includes design features common in games of its era, such as a hex map and counter board wargames counters representing military units. However, unlike many two player simulations of World War II which simply pit Axis powers Axis forces against the Allies of World War II Allies , Battle for Germany simulates Allied rivalry between the United States and the Soviet Union . Each player commands his own forces as well as the German units which are faced by his opponent. The objective is to control as much German territory as possible by the time Berlin falls to the Allies. Battle for Germany is also unusual in that it is playable by two, three, or four players with no change in setup and little change in play dynamics. Additional players control the German forces.
