World at War 91 - Taierzhuang

Both battles use many similar rules and concepts, however, for ease of play, the rules are separated into two distinct sets. The first set of rules covers Stalin's first victory, and the second the Battle of Taierzhuang. Both games are large-scale, low-complexity tactical games for two players.

Stalin's First Victory: Covers the five-day campaign between the Soviets and the Chinese that determined the outcome of the Sino-Soviet War of 1929. Each hex on the map represents 1.25 miles or 2 km. Each game turn represents one day. Maneuver units are battalions, companies and regiments.

The Battle of Taierzhuang: Covers the fighting that culminated in the first (failed) Japanese offensive into China in 1938. Each hex on the map represents 0.25 miles or 0.4 km. Each game turn represents two days. Maneuver units include Japanese infantry battalions and tank companies, as well as Chinese regiments.
