Description

This game was published in the May 1971 issue (Volume 3, Number 5) of Spartan International.

As indicated by the title, it is a wargame covering the fighting for Arnhem from September 17-25, 1944. It uses a fairly simple system, but does cover the salient points of the operation, including parachute drops, supply (including parachuted supplies), bridge blowing, etc.

In addition to the rules, the magazine includes an 11"x17" black and white map, an Order of Appearance sheet, 83 blue counters (German units and blown bridge markers), 44 beige counters (Allied units, air attack markers, and dropped supply markers), plus 1 more counter in each color which may or may belong to this game (the picture on each looks something like a mine). The counters are on paper and must be mounted and cut out
