	Description Edit \| History

From the Microgame Design Group website:

Freikorps is a simulation game of a hypothetical invasion of Germany by the Soviet Union's "Red Army of Workers and Peasants" in 1920. The game is for two players, one representing the irresistible forces of proletarian revolution (the Red Player), and the other the (hopefully) impervious alliance of anti-Bolshevist forces that would have been arrayed to oppose such an invasion (the White Player).

The 11 x 17" map covers Poland and eastern Germany from Warsaw to Berlin. The 280 counters show Red Army and German Freikorps units, as well as Spartakists (German Communists), interventionists and the remains of the Polish army.

This game was first published in DTP format in 1999 by Microgame Design Group.

Replacement Steps Calculator

Some people don't like the extra step of calculating the replacement steps they are due each turn. This lookup chart will give an approximate answer. This chart will also work with the other games using this system: Konarmiya, War Plan Crimson and Finnish Civil War. RTF file.
