Morgan said those accustomed to playing Commer Cial War games will find they have to work much harder when they play Check 6 and Feba. In Many games the Challenge is simply to decide where to place the combat Power. In these players must Cope with Supply logistics and ideological differ. Fences in getting Power into the right position. They must Cope with the strengths and limitations of playing pieces each of which represents a tank battalion or flight of aircraft. Strengths and weaknesses Are indicated by numbers. Brown pieces represent soviet aircraft and ground equipment Green pieces stand for nato forces. There Are More Brown pieces than Green ones but the Green ones usually have higher numbers. Specifications came from general circulation aviation publications so that no classified information would be included in the game design.
