Boardgames
Paths
of Glory - GMT
The
most popular game on WWI. It might not be a great simulation, but it's
a great game, using a card driven system that ensures no two games are
alike.
The
First World War - Phalanx
Games
Designed
by Ted Raicer, who is the remarkable talented game designer responsible for
Paths of Glory, this is a much more accessible game of WWI that can be
comfortably played in an evening, but nonetheless conjures up many of the dilemmas
facing the protagonists of the Great War.
Triumph
of Chaos - Clash of Arms
The
latest of a not so long line of games simulating the Russian Civil
War. This one has obviously been heavily influenced by Paths of Glory
and is likewise a card driven game. Colourful (and complex) it is not
for the feint hearted, but will appeal to those with a real interest in this
chaotic period.
