1941: What If? An Alternative History Wargame of a Second Winter Warby Ty Bomba

1941: What If? An Alternative History Wargame of a Second Winter Waris a low-to-intermediate complexity two-player alternative history wargame that’s also easily adaptable to solitaire play. It allows you to investigate the parameters inherent in the situation in Central Eastern Europe, at the end of 1940, had the Bulgarians decided to ally with the Soviets instead of the Germans, which historically they considered doing. The result wouldve been the Second War’s eastern front erupting half a year prior to its historic start date under both natural and man-made conditions vastly different than pertained at that later date.
