About the game
Poland Strikes is one of four games in the ‘Platoon Commander’ series and depicts an hypothetical war between Poland and Hungary taking place within a wider European conflict.
The game uses the latest v1.5 series rules and features an 11×17-in map, 88 x 5/8” counters, a nicely laid out and very colourful player aid card, plus 18 ‘action cards’
I assume that these latest rules are backwards compatible with the other games in the series.
Each hex represent approx 150 meters, and each game turn 15-60 minutes.

In The Trenches is a series of games that depict platoon level tactical combat during WW1, and offers a good selection of scenarios and forces from many of the involved protagonists.
Each hex represents 100 yards and each turn 5 minutes.
The series so far consists of two base games (this being one of them) and four expansions, all of which require one of the base games to play.
‘Doughboys’, as you might expect from the title, is about US Army actions set in 1918, and has three scenarios that feature a mixture of US infantry and light tanks in both defensive and offensive battles.
