Infantry Attacks
Tactical Combat in the Great War

World War One saw fighting in Africa, Asia and most of all in Europe. Infantry Attacks is our series of games based on these battles.

The game is very similar to our Panzer Grenadier series of World War II tactical games, so much so that the maps boards are numbered in the same sequence and can be used with either set of game rules.
