Produktbeschreibung

On 28 June 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and his wife were shot dead in Sarajevo, by Gavrilo Princip, member of the Black Hand, a political organization seeking for a merging of the Balkan area into a Greater Serbia or a Yugoslavia.

Austria-Hungary subsequently issued an ultimatum against Serbia. As the ultimatum was rejected, Austria-Hungary then declared war, marking the outbreak of the war.
While France and Russia immediately sided with Serbia, Germany joined the Austria-Hungary and started a surprise offensive in the west with the objective of quickly defeating the French, to then turn east and knock the Tzarist Russia out of the war.
1914 is a game of World War I conflict simulation at the strategic level. It recalls the most decisive battles fought by Germany on the Western in 1914. Although based on historical events and battles, the players in command of the two factions can modify the evolution of World War I.
The game is recommended for two or three players, but has a good solitaire suitability.
Developed with a system of wooden blocks and cubes and played out over a 64x86 cm multicolor mapboard, with more than 200 wooden components painted "A buratto", a technique usually adopted for painting car parts and accessories.
The rules are divided into two major sections which can be learned one at a time:

• The Game Rules introduce the basic concepts and enable players to start playing the game without too many rules to remember.
• The Optional Rules are for those who want to get the most out of the game, with rules for Surprise Attack, Retreat, Marne Offensive, British Fusiliers and more.
In 1914, 1 cm is approximately 27 km, a turn is 1 month long, and a full-strength counter represents a major military formation, normally corps size with some divisions.
The game must be played with "Fog of War" on (with the faces of wooden blocks hidden from the opponent).

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND - On 28 June 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and his wife were shot dead in Sarajevo, by Gavrilo Princip, member of the Black Hand, a political organization seeking for a merging of the Balkan area into a Greater Serbia or a Yugoslavia.
Austria-Hungary subsequently issued an ultimatum against Serbia. As the ultimatum was rejected, Austria-Hungary then declared war, marking the outbreak of the war.
While France and Russia immediately sided with Serbia, Germany joined the Austria-Hungary and started a surprise offensive in the west with the objective of quickly defeating the French, to then turn east and knock the Tzarist Russia out of the war.

1914: GERMANY AT WAR is a medium/light war game covering the grand offensive launched by Germany against France in August 1914. Although based on historical events and much research, the players can try to change the course of history in early 20th Century Europe. Can the Germans make their “War Plan” *work for a quick end to the war? And for the Allies, it’s not enough to just frustrate the Germans.Can they be more successful than they were historically and avoid four years of trench bloodshed? The answers are up to you!

The game is recommended for two or three players, but we are told many players enjoy it solitaire as well.
* (In the years prior to 1914, the great German envelopment manoeuvre was called simply the “War Plan.” It was only after the war that the term “Schlieffen Plan” was created!)

SCALE - In 1914: Germany at War, 1 cm is approximately 27Km.
A turn is equal to 1 month of battles.
A full-strength counter represents a major military formation, normally of Corps size, along with Army Leaders.

RULES INTRODUCTION - The rules are easy, players can start playing the game without too many rules to remember and the game is 4 turn long (1-3 hours) taking place from August to November.

UNITS - There are four types of units in the game: Leaders, Infantry, Cavalry and Garrisons.
Leaders, Infantry and Cavalry are represented as blocks. Each has a sticker reporting the historical name, the Movement Allowance (Footstep or Horseshoes) and the Firepower (Dots or Stars).
A unique colour identifies all units belonging to the same Army and led by the Tactical Leaer.

FOG of WAR - The game is played with "Fog of War" so units are placed upright with the sticker facing the owning player and the enemy player cannot see them. During the game - at a certain points - units are revealed.
