On to Berlin

Covering all of the European Theater and North Africa from 1939 to 1945, On to Berlin! allows players to be in total control of their forces and decide the strategy to use throughout the war. By selecting cards to play each turn, the players decide how they will pursue victory or thwart their opponent. Will you use Diplomacy to get friendly nations to join you in the war? Will you Develop new weapons to destroy your opponent? Will you build up their military strength by Mobilizing new armies? Will you launch devastating Blitzkrieg attacks against your enemies? Will you destroy your enemies’ resources through Strategic Bombing? You get to make the choices that will lead your forces to glorious victory or ignominious defeat. Originally published in Japan in Game Journal Magazine using the same card-play mechanics as “What Price Glory?”  this fast-playing game allows for the entire war to be played out in an evening, with tremendous replayabilty as players get to try different strategies. What would happen if German invades France instead of Poland? Can the British convince the USA to join the war before 1942?
