1973: The Yom Kippur War

2–2 players · 150 min · 14+

This installment of the Procedural Combat Series sees a return to historical conflict in one of the cold war’s most iconic campaigns. A well trained, well armed, but unprepared Israel must defend herself against a multinational coalition lead by Egypt and Syria that is bent on her destruction. 1973 highlights the highly mobile nature of this campaign, and adds a realistic treatment of air operations. Some support units are included in the OOB as to give players a chance to experience how new weapons systems for the time had an impact on the battle space. Moving the PCS series to a desert environment gives mechanized and motorized units a huge level of freedom in terms of maneuver.
