Aegean Strike: Land, Air, and Sea Combat in the Eastern Mediterranean

About this board game

Aegean Strike: Land, Air, and Sea Combat in the Eastern Mediterranean is a two-player modern warfare game with a 2400-minute playing time, released in 1986.

The game presents a comprehensive and realistic picture of how ground, air, and naval forces interact in modern warfare. Its highly interactive sequence of play allows players to act and react as the battle situation changes, making the relationship between opposing operations central to the experience.

Aegean Strike integrates combat arms at both the operational and strategic levels. Players engage with warfare across multiple domains while responding to developments on land, in the air, and at sea.

The included scenarios explore several conflicts and crises in the Eastern Mediterranean and beyond:

• A Libyan–Egyptian War
• A Turkish Missile Crisis
• A Greco-Turkish War
• World War III

These scenarios provide distinct settings for examining the interplay of modern combat forces. The range of situations gives the game a broad scope, from regional confrontations to a global crisis.

Gulf Strike is not required to play Aegean Strike. However, the game includes a link-up scenario for players who have both titles, extending the relationship between the two games without making the companion game necessary.

For players interested in detailed modern conflict at operational and strategic levels, Aegean Strike offers a focused Eastern Mediterranean setting, reactive gameplay, and a wide selection of scenarios involving land, air, and sea combat.
