## Description

On 18 July 1936&#44; various generals in the Spanish army rose up against the government of the Second Republic&#46; The failure of the coup as it had been originally planned gave way to a civil conflict between the defenders of the democratic government and the backers of the military coup&#46; Machado&#39;s two Spains fought each other for nearly three years in a battle which reflected the political and social tensions affecting the world at that time&#46; The opposing armies were very different&#58; on one hand&#44; the Republican army possessed a limited number of professional soldiers and many popular militias belonging to political parties and labor unions&#46; To this were added the International Brigades&#44; formed from foreign volunteers of diverse origin&#59; a fighting force which was highly motivated&#44; but poorly coordinated and typically poorly organized&#46; On the other hand&#44; the Franco&#39;s army had most of the professional military&#44; along with Carlist and fascist militias&#44; many native Moroccan troops&#44; and the volunteers of the Condor Legion and the Corpo Trupe Voluntarie sent by Hitler and Mussolini respectively&#46; From a military point of view&#44; the Spanish Civil War presaged the global conflict which would soon erupt&#46; In the mid&#45;1930s&#44; military high commands from all over the globe theorized on the possibilities of motorized armies and &quot;lightning war&quot;&#46; Both Nazis and Soviets rehearsed armored tactics in Spain&#44; and tested various types of weapons&#46; In addition&#44; the importance that air superiority would have on all later conflicts was made clear&#46; All of these elements make the Spanish Civil War a fascinating conflict from an historical point of view and with regard to military strategy&#46; A las Barricadas&#33;&#44; the first title in the War Storm Series&#44; is a game that simulates the battles which took place on the different fronts of the war&#44; at platoon and company level&#46; The rules are oriented towards the tactical simulation of combat involving armored vehicles&#44; infantry&#44; artillery&#44; and aircraft&#44; and as such are especially suited to represent almost any 20th century armed conflict as it actually happened&#46; This new edition of A las Barricadas&#33; is a major upgrade over the earlier game&#46; With up updated and rewritten rules&#44; improved and illustrated examples&#44; new scenario&#44; nearly double the number of counters all with updated graphics&#44; the Compass edition is a must&#45;have for your gaming collection&#46; Components4 Isomorphic maps3 Sheets of counters &#40;21&#47;2 of 5&#47;8&quot; and 1&#47;2 of 3&#47;4&quot;&#41;1 Rulebook8 Scenario cards featuring 16 scenarios2 Charts and tables cards2 Six&#45;sided diceOne box and lid setSpecificationsComplexity&#58; Medium &#40;5 out of 10&#41;Solitaire suitability&#58; 8Time Scale&#58; 1 turn &#61; 12 &#45; 15 minutesMap Scale&#58; 1 hex &#61; 150 &#45; 200 metersUnit Scale&#58; Companies &#38; 3&#45;5 vehiclesPlayers&#58; 2Playing Time&#58; Small Scenarios&#58; 45 minutes and up
