About this game
This variant on the old L’Attaque has a very plain board, with yellow set-up areas and a green “No Man’s Land/Sea” in between. The cover is vivid, featuring a B-29 Superfortress, which carried the atom bomb to Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The wooden stand-up playing pieces have an illustrated angled side toward the owning player. They include infantry pieces with values from 1-14 and forces and weapons with special powers.

Rules
Players set up secretly and move pieces one at a time. When one infantry attacks another, the values are revealed and the lower-value piece is removed from the game. Bombs don’t move, but kill any unit that attacks them except engineers. Tanks and airplanes kill any infantry unit including engineers, but lose to guns. Planes also kill tanks. The A-bomb acts like a moveable mine that destroys every piece in an adjacent square when it explodes – enemy and friendly alike.
