We played about halfway through the Hammer & Anvil scenario to give everyone a quick look at how the game plays. Yea, my card plays weren't optimal, but there's always the next time. :) ** Please Subscribe and hit the Bell icon to be notified when I upload new content ** Buy Moe a coffee (or a whiskey) at: https://ko-fi.com/moesgametable Game: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/markhwalker/85-afghanistan-graveyard-of-empires-a-squad-battles-game

About '85 Afghanistan: Graveyard of Empires, from BoardGameGeek:

'85 Graveyard of Empires is the second game in the Squad Battles series. Building on the mechanics introduced in '65 Squad Battles in the Jungles of Vietnam, Graveyard of Empires (GOE) features squad-level battles between the Afghan Mujahideen and Soviet Red Army in a card-driven, hex and counter game. GOE introduces card-activated events, immersive helicopter rules, more tactical decisions, new powers and abilities, and beautiful counter and game board art. The counters are 1” or larger (for the vehicles) and the game board hexes are huge. Included are counters for Mujahideen RPG and RPD teams, rifle squads and heroes, as well as captured T-55 and BMP armored fighting vehicles. The Soviets respond with Spetsnaz, line rifle squads, heroes, Hind-24 attack helicopters and several types of AFVs, such T-55, T-62 tanks, BNPs, BTRs, and more. -description from the designer
