Enemy Action: Kharkov

Each volume in the Enemy Action series features: • Two-player competition with low complexity and constant decision points for both sides; • Solitaire play of either side with systems governing all aspects of enemy command and tactics; • Card-driven impulse system, with multi-purpose cards played to activate formations, implement command events, or gain tactical advantages in combat. • Diceless and chartless combat system – players draw combat chits that build a narrative of each combat. The solo games add fog of war to the experience. Many enemy unit locations in the solo games are unknown until your forces move to contact. Enemy units behind the front line often disappear to reappear elsewhere, within realistic movement limitations.
