 "Storm
Over Arnhem" is a Squad-level simulation re-creating the block by block
intense fighting for control of the important road bridge in the city of
Arnhem during the fall of 1944. For the British, it was the last objective
and key to final success of Operation Market Garden. To the Germans, possession
meant failure of the Allied offensive and control of the bridge to rush
reinforcements to vital areas. The game covers four days of the fighting.
Each unit represents 12 men or a small group of armored vehicles. Low to
medium complexity.

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.
