COMING SOON! ESTIMATED RELEASE Q4 2021. THIS IS A BOOKCASE SIZED GAME.

The War Against Russia (TWAR) is a comprehensive simulation covering the first two years of the Crimean War in both the Crimea and the Danube. The game is heavily inspired by Frank Chadwick’s GDW Crimea which was released in the mid 70s, and uses similar concepts but streamlined for playability. Players will be able to choose to start the campaign from the Russian advance into Wallachia (modern day Romania) or at the start of the Crimean campaign. This is the first time the campaign outside the Crimea itself has been depicted in any simulation. Units will be regiment sized, with the ability for some limited tactical choices such as charging. Siege Artillery will play an important roll being necessary to destroy fortresses before an assault. In addition to the operational battles, A linked campaign will be included so players can carry their losses across multiple scenarios and compare their performance to their historical counterparts. The allies have multiple options when it comes to landing and conducting amphibious operations. Forces from the allied navies along with the black sea fleet are present as well.

Depending on interest, I may include an extra game with this title called, “The War Against The Crimea” which uses the LCOS system from 1870 to depict the campaign in the Crimea.
