Tomorrow the World (1989)

About this game

This ultimate nightmare game postulates an alternate scenario for the events leading up to World War II. Roosevelt is successfully assassinated, Churchill is killed in action early in his career, and the West never pulls out of the great depression. The German-Japanese alliance sweeps to power and divides the world. In 1948 they turn on each other. From jet fighters to nuclear bombs this game has everything. (from an ad in Space Gamer) A sequel: Tomorrow the World, Volume 2: The Air War

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 2.5/5 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.
