Game Summary
The third sister, ARAB-ISRAELI WARS uses the same game system as PANZERBLITZ and PANZER LEADER. New dimensions are added, however, as the distinctive features of the modern wars in the Middle East are incorporated into the system. Every type of unit that saw action in the 1967 and 1973 Middle East Wars is represented, most of the equipment being either Russian, American, or British. Game features include helicopters, artillery rockets, electronic warfare, assault boats, the Suez Canal, missiles, bridge-laying, smoke-laying, desert terrain, paratroopers, commandoes, and much more. Twenty-four scenarios are divided among three sections of the rulebook; the basic game, the standard game, and the advanced game. Actions covered range from delaying actions to armored breakouts In Syria, Jordan, and Egypt.
