 Expanding
on their award-winning "The Rise And Decline Of The Third Reich" (better
known as "Third Reich",
first published in 1974), this is a Grand Strategic game depicting the
Second World War. The game simulates the military, economic, political,
diplomatic and technical aspects. Units include armor, infantry, airborne,
partisan, air, naval, V-weapon and commandos. The fighting can take you
from the fjords of Norway to the sands of Egypt, and from Britain's Atlantic
approaches to the Urals. This is a stand-alone game and does not require
ownership of the original "Third
Reich".
 A
companion game to "Advanced Third Reich" is "Empire
Of The Rising Sun", which takes the fight to the Pacific. The two games
can be combined to fight the entire Second World War or can be played separately,
since each game is a stand-alone game. Those interested in "Advanced Third
Reich" should also have "Empire
Of The Rising Sun" since the latter game also has updates for the former
game.
Game components include :
2 Mapsheets, Counters, 6 Player Aid charts, 6 Scenario cards, 2 Dice, 36-page
Appendix & 64-page Rule book.
 Two
to six players (?). Ages 12 & up. Avalon Hill from 1992. Design: Bruce
Harper.

An
important note regarding Avalon Hill games
- It was not unusual for Avalon Hill to re-publish most of their games
with 2nd, 3rd or more Editions. Sometimes the game components changed,
sometimes they didn't. If your game components do not correspond exactly
with what is listed, do not despair. You may just have to do a little more
checking to insure its completeness.
