• Red Attack!: "A two-player company level game which simulates an attack by a mixed Soviet tank and infantry force against a defending infantry force" where a player wins "by occupying two of the three towns on the mapboard". ^{[1] : 1} The battlefield is randomized – both players must agree on a fair one before the scenario begins. ^{[1] : 1}
