Overview
Mech War '77 is a simulation of tactical combat in West Germany and Asia during the 1970's. The game is played by scenario. Eight scenarios revolve around a hypothetical Soviet-American clash in West Germany. One scenario is drawn from the Yom Kippur War. The tenth scenario pictures a Sino-Soviet clash.
Scale: Each hex represents 200 meters from side to side. Time: Each Game-Turn represent one to six minutes of elapsed time. Counters: 400
Uses the same rules system (but with additional "modern" elements) as Panzer '44: Tactical Armored Combat, Europe, 1944-45
