From the rear cover of the book: In this book Stuart Asquith, editor of Practical Wargamer magazine and contributing editor to Military Modelling magazine, provides a comprehensive guide to wargaming the World War Two period. He begins by outlining the main events of the 1939-1945 conflict, year by year, and moves on to analyse the war by considering separately the three services - land, sea and air. He discusses each in terms of the background information, organisational details, weaponry and equipment of the major combatant nations suggesting appropriate wargaming rules and scenarios.
