Watch “Checkpoint Charlie | Sample Turn with Russ Brown,” a how-to-play guide for Checkpoint Charlie from GMTGames on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by GMTGames on YouTube:

Perhaps the best way to explain the mechanics and the unique movement system of Checkpoint Charlie is to walk through a sample turn. In this video, designer Russ Brown does just that! Or, for those of you who might prefer to read rather than watch a sample turn, Russ wrote an article about it on InsideGMT. See that article here: https://insidegmt.com/checkpoint-charlie-sample-turn/ ------- Checkpoint Charlie P500 page: https://www.gmtgames.com/p-1211-checkpoint-charlie.aspx

About Checkpoint Charlie, from BoardGameGeek:

Checkpoint Charlie is a solitaire or cooperative game of British Secret Intelligence Service (SIS) espionage missions in Berlin in the early 1960s. West Berlin is an isolated outpost of the Western Powers in the center of the German Democratic Republic (East Germany). East Berlin, on the other side of the Berlin Wall, is a base of operations for Soviet KGB agents and the Stasi secret police. This is a city of spies, a focal point of worldwide espionage in the growing Cold War. In this game, you send your assets (agents) on missions and use your influence and foresight to help them complete objectives before they are detected and compromised by KGB agents. As you play through these missions, you will: Ensure that an important defector gets safely out of the city. Make contact with a dissident Russian scientist on the other side of the Berlin Wall. Gather intelligence in East Berlin and return safely to the West Entrap a troublesome KGB agent with tempting intelligence. Sow distrust between KGB and Stasi agents. Identify a Soviet mole among your SIS agents and wait for them to reveal themselves. Can you accomplish all of this in secret, as the very public events of the Cold War change the political landscape of Berlin itself? —description from the publisher
