Field Marshal (1976)

About this game

Field Marshal is a wargame between two fictional countries using world war two era technology. The game adds a level of uncertainty with a deck of event cards which could cause events such as some of your troops being withdrawn to another front which is off map and which you have no control over. Also included is a third minor country which could join the fighting on either side.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 2.1/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
