Eagle Leader is a solitaire air tactical game which depicts NATO's air war in a series of hypothetical Cold War Gone Hot scenarios. The game covers the late Cold War, from 1976 (the introduction year of the Eagle) to 1991, with featured aircraft including the F-15C Eagle, the F-15E Strike Eagle, the F-111 Aardvark, the EF-111 Raven, and the F-16 Viper. Eagle Leader focuses on force packaging-- the selection of the right aircraft and the right munitions will make the difference between success and failure for your squadron. You will be asked to make decisions that NATO Air Planners would've had to consider in the real world. This game adds new aspects to the Leader series such as electronic warfare aircraft, US and NATO-specific skills, and an expanded "Squadron Operations" module for Leader players looking for the most detailed experience. The core game contains 336 cards and 704 counters, including: 222 x Aircraft cards F-15C Eagle F-15E Strike Eagle F-15J Eagle (Japan) F-16C Fighting Falcon F-16 ADF CF-18 Hornet (Canada) EF-111 Raven F-111C Aardvark (Australia) F-111F Aardvark F-4F Wild Weasel A-4K Kahu (New Zealand) A-7D Corsair II Tornado GR.1A (United Kingdom) 17 x Squadron Asset cards RF-4 Flash Phantom A-10 Thunderbolt II F-117 Nighthawk E-3 Sentry KC-10 Extender KC-135 Stratotanker Airborne Battalion Army Attack Helicopters M270 MLRS PJ Teams SOF Team Tomahawk Strike 50 x Target cards 37 x Event cards 10 x Special Condition cards In addition, the core box includes: 8 x Campaign sheets 3 x Skills / Traits / Player Help sheets 1 x Sequence of Play Flowchart 1 x Airbase Squadron Control sheet 1 x Player Log sheet 1 x Tactical Display board 1 x Rulebook -description from the publisher
