📖 About This Game

Microgame #8 in the Metagaming Microgames series, the original release of G.E.V. A follow-up to Ogre. Units from Ogre are carried over, with expanded rules for terrain. A larger map and more ambitious game. Second base game of the Game: Ogre / G.E.V.. Note: Ogre and G.E.V. were later reissued separately and then repackaged together as Ogre / G.E.V. by Steve Jackson Games. The Steve Jackson GEV edition has a different countermix to the original editions.
