Recently I watched 1969's The Bridge at Remagen starring George Segal et al, and unable to help myself, I picked up the inexpensive print-n-play version of Remagen Bridgehead by Minden Games over on WargameVault.
Frankly, I shouldn't be allowed to shop for anything after watching a movie. The first time this was apparent was when I watched Jimi Hendrix: Live at Monterey and went and bought a Fender Strat the next day!
In any case, Remagen Bridgehead is a very simple but enjoyable solo game with frustratingly random victory conditions (although the rules author suggests if that's too much to bear, then determine them before the game begins).

John,
ReplyDeleteIf you would send me your email address I will send you a copy of Henry Bodenstedt's Remagen game from the 1960's. It is made for 54mm figures, and has a very nice "Old School" feel--probably because it IS "Old School"!
Best regards,
Chris Johnson
P.S. I love your blog--I visit it pretty much every day now.
Chris,
DeleteThank you for the kind comment and the offer!
