Easy to play solitaire game unclear why anyone would rate this game a one of five. It is physically attractive and compact easy to take with on a business trip for example.

So much fun! As a new wargamer I've been looking for games that are relatively easy to play. While few wargames are "easy", the learning curve for this was such that I got it from the mail box around 5pm, read the rules, looked at Board Game Geek for things to watch out for, and had finished a round the same evening. A great starter, with just enough complexity to keep me wanting to come back to the hobby.

Would rate it lower if possible. There were no counters in the game.
