Pocket Box; cover art by Dave Martin. 21" x 32" green/brown map, four sheets of black/red/white two-sided counters, rulebook. This game is set in the Ogre/G.E.V. background, but is on a different scale, where each counter represents a single battle suited infantryman; it is not compatible. Related to the Ogre/G.E.V. line.
