Triumph Of The Will

Triumph of the Will: Nazi Germany vs. Imperial Japan, 1948 enables two players to game the entirety of alternative history�s worst nightmare: a triumphant Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan, having won World War II and conquered the planet in 1945, square off against each other � for total domination � three years later. The game�s two area-movement mapsheets join along the equator to show the whole world, including the Arctic and Antarctic.

Game mechanics recreate the dilemmas and challenges inherent in grand-strategic warfare aimed at controlling an entire planet. The keynote is a system in which making moves switches rapidly back and forth between the players one �action� at a time. There are no long waits for your opponent to finish his move; both players are kept fully involved at all times. In any order you want, you can: enter reinforcements; bring back into play previously eliminated units; move an army, air force, fleet or elite corps on the map via land, sea or air; launch a conventional attack or launch a nuclear attack. Of course, if too many mushroom clouds appear, there�s an increasing chance �nuclear winter� will engulf the Earth, in which case both players lose. Similarly, clandestine guerrilla forces of the underground �United Nations� resistance organization are constantly lurking, ready to fill any power vacuum left behind your front and raise their sky-blue flag of rebellion.
