Sahara Sandstorm társasjáték

Angol leírás

"Colonial Era Combat game: 1879 - 1929. French Foreign Legion, British Colonials, Germans SWA Troops, etc. Simple, fun wargame rules for backyard, beach or living room."

"The romantic tales of the French Foreign Legion, the drama of the hundred British regulars who held off 4,000 Zulu warriors at Rourke's Drift, the harsh battle of Khartoum - these are the stuff of legend. Sahara Sands is a fast-action battle game that enables you to replicate those days of tropical heat and adventure. You bring the toy soldiers, regular dice and kite string while we show you how it's done!"
