Overview of Downfall from GMT Games

Here's a look at DOWNFALL by GMT Games.

This does look very cool. I wonder whether something similar could be done in the Pacific, with one player taking the Americans and the Japanese army, and the other taking the Chinese and the Japanese navy. Splitting Japan between army and navy would be very realistic and it would also help give the proper weight to the Chinese front, which hardly any PTO strategic game does.

I've got this on my table and am playing with a buddy using an old version of the VASSAL module, but I am anxiously awaiting the updated VASSAL module to be released so that we can play it as written!

Reminds me of SPI’s The Battle for Germany

Got a game planned for Monday so got to bury my head into the rules getting a quick overview is very timely - thanks!

Joel, nice summary. How about print that track out and slide it under your plexi / the right way up!? 😮

May be player A as SU and German West against Player B as Allied and German East.

When's the VASSAL module going to be done, Joel? :)

Yes, looks interesting. I'm a big fan of Advanced Third Reich. One question, cost? 🤷
