Army Men: Card Combat is a dirt simple, two player wargame that s playable with only a handful of plastic Army Men and a pack of standard playing cards. The game was designed with kids in mind and is a great way to introduce your younglings to the world of wargaming. In pursuit of this goal, the game is built on a simple foundation drawing on the classic card game, War, with the addition of figures and movement. Several optional advanced rules are then presented throughout to add more strategy as players become comfortable with the rules such as Cover, Stats, and Special Abilities. Army Men: Card Combat also offers a low cost, fast playing wargame option for all ages if you just want a casual, beer-and-pretzels experience that hits all the right nostalgia notes. —description from the publisher
