WLOG - Rommel’s War, or perspective in simulation games (English language)

Watch “WLOG - Rommel’s War, or perspective in simulation games (English language),” a board game review for Rommel's War on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by Riccardo Masini - WLOG on YouTube:

World War II in North Africa, a theme we have seen recreated in a lot of games. Rommel’s War is different, because its essentiality is almost disarming, beyond the very concept of mere “simplicity”… but it is also a game really putting us in the same perspective of Rommel and his adversaries (No, this is definitely NOT Campaign for North Africa) BGG: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/407575/rommels-war

About Rommel's War, from BoardGameGeek:

Rommel's War is a 2 player game about the first year of the war in the desert, from March to December of 1941. One player takes the role of Rommel in command of Axis forces, and the other player takes the role of the British commanders (Wavell and Auchinleck). The game only has 8 pages of rules and a playing time of 1 hour so you will be picking the sand from your shorts in no time in this exciting, fast paced game of decision in the desert. -description from the publisher
