From BoardGameGeek
Valkyrie is a Black Orchestra game with quicker, simpler gameplay, and new strategic elements. Focus on assassinating Hitler with explosives, completing Operation Valkyrie with the Gestapo always close at hand to pull you in for questioning. Stay one step ahead of the Gestapo and defeat Hitler before they collect enough evidence to have you tried for treason and executed. In this stand-alone version of Black Orchestra, players experience the familiar tension and dread but in about half the time of the original. Gameplay has been streamlined even as new strategic elements have been added. In this version the conspirators must focus on assassinating Hitler with explosives, completing Operation Valkyrie. This can be accomplished in a number of ways, with the Gestapo always close at hand to pull you in for questioning. The game ends either when you successfully defeat Hitler or when the Gestapo collect enough evidence to have you tried for treason and executed. The game also ends in failure if you exhaust the interrogation deck. -description from the publisher
