This 60-page issue, in full color, features a wealth of content on Lock 'n Load: Forgotten Heroes 2. A detailed review of the game containing examples of play, a gripping battle report on the scenario "A River of Perfume", an in-depth historical article on ground operations that provides background for many of the game's scenarios, an article on the Long-Range Recon Patrols (LRRPs) and two supporting LRRP scenarios, plus a third new scenario, "Ambush!".
Also included is a complete game, Raid and Riposte. It is an area-combat system representing the ferocious defense of Tanenhause by the Soviet 1st Paratroop Regiment from May 13th to 20th, 1985, against repeated assaults by the Bundeswehr and US Army forces. It is played on an 11 inch by 17 inch map and uses 42 5/8 inch counters. Fast and fun, it is easy to learn, and another unique look at the Cold War gone hot.
If that's not enough, check out plenty of new material for the World at War system. A command-and-control HQ variant, another scenario for the SADF Chapter, a solitaire scenario on the Warsaw Pact's attempt to crush the Solidarnosc movement, and part one of two of a modulette, Jungle Blood and Sweat, on the second Sino-Vietnamese War in 1985, which includes new counters for Vietnamese and Chinese formations.
