This new edition contains several new optional rules, and four new scenarios. You must own the components to a host WW2 tactical wargame (maps and counters) from a "host" game, such as regular or advanced squad leader or similar tactical wargame system, to use the variant.If you own a previous edition of Retro, you will no doubt appreciate what this 6th edtion (the first new edition since 2016) offers. If you are new, and enjoy tactical-level World War II board wargames and appreciate high playability instead of complexity and wrestling with rules as thick as a phone book, then you're also a prime candidate to enjoy Retro. This highly regarded variant allows you to finally take all those modules off your shelf to play and enjoy, without a ton of rules overhead. Designer: Gary Graber. Publisher: Minden Games. Read more
