Army of Lappland

In the summer of 1941, German mountain troops began an offensive along the Arctic Ocean coast aimed at taking the Soviet port of Murmansk. In fierce fighting, the Soviets held them back and in 1942 launched their own counter-offensive. In 1944 they tried again, driving the Germans out of Finland and northern Norway. This game covers all three of these campaigns plus the planned British "Operation Jupiter" to land troops nearby to assist the Red Army. The map is divided into hexagons at a scale of 2 kilometers across each hex, and most units are battalions. The game system is the same as that in Tiger of Malaya, providing a maximum amount of chaos and excellent solitaire gaming opportunities. $79.99

Status: In final development, due Summer 2008

Red Desert

Japanese and Soviet tanks clash in the deserts of eastern Mongolia in the summer of 1939. The Soviets have more and better tanks, massive superiority in artillery and many more troops. The Japanese do have air superiority and fanatically hard-fighting infantry. This game uses the same game system as Alamein, so Japanese morale will have to overcome Soviet material strength in a war fought in the middle of nowhere. $59.99

Status: In final development, due Summer 2008
