About this product

Product Information

This is the first in a series of game books which put you in command of the forces in engaged in some of history's most famous battles. Your tactical skill and ability to make the right command decision will be tested at every turn of the page. Operation Market Garden in September 1944 was one of the most daring Allied plans of the Second World War. An audacious surprise assault from the air, it was intended to give the Allies a bridgehead across the Rhine, removing the last significant natural barrier on the road to Berlin. If successful it might have shortened the war by months. Will the brave British paratroopers be able to seize the vital bridge at Arnhem and hold it until reinforcements fight their way through? Or will the Germans be able to recover the initiative and crush them in a skillful counterattack? The book presents you with a series of command decisions, aided by situation maps; directing you to the next relevant briefing depending on the option you choose. No dice are necessary to play, just this book and your tactical skill. When you buy this book, the fate of nations is in your hands. AUTHOR: Husband and wife team Jonathan Sutherland and Diane Canwell are professional writers with numerous military history books to their credit. Jon is a veteran wargamer and Diane's Continuing Tales of Wargames Widow are a regular feature in Battlegames Magazine.

  • Easy to play game book

    This game book of the battle for Arnhem both from the British Airborne and the German side is a easy to read and follow games book. No dice or anything else is needed to play the game, the reader makes a decision on what there next action will be and turns to that page. It has historical events and activities throughout which gives a small impression of the real events. It's a easy to read and follow game. I would advise to get it for the best price as you may be of the opinion it's over priced. I am replaying it as there is the ability to replay the game many times. I recommend this stand alone game book. There is another game book about the battle for Alamein.
