*** A short game playable in a few hours and possibly for tournaments. *** A sample part of the DR - Hafid Ridge map
DR - Hafid Ridge (DR-HR) - Hafid Ridge is GSI's next offering using the Death Ride game system. The game focuses on tactical level combat and maneuver during Operation Battleaxe prior to the Crusader battle that lifted the seige of Tobruk. This is a stand alone game and does not need any other GSI title to be played. It is smaller than any other Death Ride game and can be played in a few hours. This game will give those with the Death Ride Kursk games a glimpse into some changes for the next large series, Death Ride Salerno. This game will introduce double sided counters. A real advancement for us. The rules are modeled around the seven battlefield operating systems which make them easily understood and easy to learn. This battle will provide a challenge to both players. The British will find that they need to be very aggressive to push through the anti-tank defense. The Germans have to simply hang on. Either way it's a cliff hanger. Game play is excellent for solitaire play and moves along very quickly. The game is specifically designed to play in an evening or afternoon. The Commonwealth forces drove straight into the anti-tank screen. They were suckered into advancing into the anti-tank and anti-aircraft guns of the Germans behind the ridge and took heavy losses. By the time they were making some headway the 5th Panzer Regiment was on the scene and forced the British 7th Armored Brigade to break contact and run back to the Egyptian border. A look at British Order of Battle elements that were involved.
This game is not intended to fit into any other Death Ride game to make a larger battle. At least not yet. Game Design by: Chris Fasulo Map Artwork by: Kyle Gebhardt The game is now released. Look for us on
