From BoardGameGeek

Western Front is a two player card game where players assume the role of commanders in the armies of the Kaiser's Germany, or the Entente Powers. Battles are fought over 5 rounds representing the years 1914-1918 and the first player to achieve 3 years (rounds) is the winner. Cards represent units and can provide attack or defensive values. Each player reveals their units simultaneously to determine net results before the option of playing additional cards. Committing units to the fight and employing sound tactical decisions will help achieve victory, however unpredictable events can dramatically alter the battlefield. The game is said to have simple rules, allow for interesting decisions and be both quick and fun.
