Oil War: Iran Strikes
Description
Oil War: Iran Strikes (OW) is a low-intermediate complexity design set in a timeframe of the near future – 2013 through 2017 – in which the Iranians may indeed have developed some kind of nuclear capability. At that same time, with the “War on Terror” having likely slithered to an indecisive end by then, and the US therefore likely fallen back into another post-Vietnam-type “neo-isolationist” phase, the possibility for a blitz-style Iranian conventional military victory – aimed at establishing and certifying Tehran as the hegemon of the Gulf region – moves to the fore. Each hex on the map equals 18 miles (30 km) from side to opposite side, and its coverage stretches from Turkey in the north to the UAE in the south, and from the Iranian border and Persian Gulf on the east to Baghdad and Riyadh on the west. Each game turn represents three days, with a full match covering the first month of the war. Special rules cover such things as: sudden death victories and victories on points, variable phase sequences, US naval supremacy, unique Saudi combat5 characteristics, geographic and multi-national movement and combat restrictions, US locking zones of control, US bases, Kuwaiti border defenses, Iraqi unit defections, Al Qods terror attacks, massed Basij suicide attacks, Basra’s critical logistical status, Iranian airborne and marine units, artillery, combat engineers, airpower, UN intervention, unique US BCT capabilities, the legend of the 12th Imam, and much more.
