Help Arrives!
A tactical platoon-level wargame set in the Spanish Civil War, simulating combat between Republican and Nationalist forces and the foreign units that intervened. Players activate officers and unit leaders to move, fire, assault, call artillery and air support, and coordinate actions in a simultaneous “we go” activation system that blends turns with real-time-style activations. Units represent platoons, weapon crews and vehicle groups; turns cover roughly 12–15 minutes and play across modular hex maps (150–200 m per hex) that can be combined to form custom battlefields. Scenarios include historical forces such as International Brigades, the Condor Legion and Italian C.T.V., with rules for battalion officers, commissars, recon, flamethrower tanks and other period effects.
