About this board game

Target Arnhem: Across 6 Bridges is a Japanese wargame for two players that simulates the Battle of Arnhem in 1944, with an approximate playing time of 90 minutes.

The game places its focus on a significant battle of the Second World War. Rather than presenting a broad overview of the entire conflict, it concentrates on Arnhem and offers a dedicated tabletop simulation of that 1944 engagement.

Target Arnhem originated as an International Game Series title and was published in Old Game Journal Magazine #43. Its release year is listed as 1996, giving the game a place in the history of magazine-published Japanese wargames.
