I've used the 1974 version for years to introduce people to the hobby. It is balanced, simple, fun, and a good simulation. But it's more than that! It is one of the most innovative wargames of all time. How so? Each player plays both sides, one player get the Russian front and West Germany, the other East Germany and the Western front. It works! It also a technique that has been used by dozens of other game designers ever sense. Lastly, the rules for this game are one of the best set or wargames ever written, in my opinion: concise, easy to understand, and even fun.

beer and pretzel game is an old school gaming phrase for a game that,well,can be played while drinking beer and eating pretzels,and this still is,the rules can be read in under an hour and off you go,a 2,3,4 player game,the units need to be printed on map for easy and short set up time with this type of game,but still fun to play with family or friends
