217 - The American Army in WW I

Description: The Lost Battalion (TLB) is a one or two player game covering America's largest offensive of the Great War. When playing the solitaire version, the player takes control of all American and French units (unless otherwise noted, all Allied units are referred to as 'American') and the game system controls the Germans. Essentially, the player must drive as quickly as he can through the formidable defenses on the map to secure victory point hexes across the Meuse River. In the two player version, one player controls the Germans. The objective for the American player is to gain VP hexes; the German player must prevent that from happening. Each versio0n of the game has a historical set up and a free set up variant.
