This game is in Good condition. It has been punched but we have checked the contents and found them to be in order.
Not to be confused with the identically named game produced by Waddingtons in the 1970's, we believe this board game was published in post WW2 1940's by Wills and Hepworth in Loughborough, United Kingdom. We have not been able to source any other version of it for sale elsewhere, or any record of it being sold elsewhere. It appears to be real collectors item.The game is based upon the western desert campaign of WW2. The game components are:
2 x sets of cardboard 4 artillery pieces (one red set, one blue set)
2 x sets of cardboard 4 tank pieces (one red set, one blue set)
2 x sets of cardboard 6 infantry pieces (one red set, one blue set)
1 x six sided dice
1 x playing board
1 x rules leaflet
It is a game for 2 players, but it can be played with 2 or even 3 players on each side. Each side has 4 units of tanks, 4 units of artillery and 6 infantry units. The object of the game is to reach the opposing sides base with one of each unit type (tank, artillery and infantry)
