Overview
War in the West is a corps/division level simulation designed to recreate these massive battles. Each hex represents 33 kilometers of actual distance and each game-turn represents one week of actual time (the same scale as War in the East).
There are 5 scenarios: Poland, France 1940, North Africa, Italy and France 1944. In addition the scenarios can be used as a starting point for a campaign scenario covering the remainder of the war.
Part of WAR IN EUROPE, but also sold separately.
