📖 About This Game

Donau Front: Ardennes of the ‘90s: The Bavarian Option in the Next War, is the second game in the renewed Central Front series of games which include: North German Plain, BAOR, Fifth Corps, and Hof Gap. Maps from all of the renewed series games may be linked and rules exist for a full Campaign game. Donau Front was first published in Strategy & Tactics magazine #131. The games are designed to depict hypothetical Warsaw Pact versus NATO conflict during the first five days of a future war. Victory is measured by the PACT player's attainment of certain objectives, and the NATO player's denial of these. Objectives range from advancing to a specific hex row, to occupying Munich. Four different objective types exist, so it is possible for both players to "win". Rules are provided to link this game with Hof Gap. Game Scale: Turn: 6 hour daylight & 12 hour nighttime turns Hex: 4 km Unit: Company to Brigade Game Inventory: One 22" X 34" mapsheet One countersheet (200 1/2" counters) One 16 page rules booklet (Central Front Standard Rules & Donau Front Exclusive Rules)
