Based on concepts put forward by Hermann Kahn, Henry Kissinger and Robert McNamara, these game confront players with the complexity of the nuclear arena and challenge them to manage a crisis without destroying the World. The latest installment is NATO 1961: the Berlin Crisis.
Science Fiction SeriesThe Microgame Design Group's Science Fiction Series by Kerry Anderson are generally light-hearted, entertaining games that provide players with an evening's entertainment. These games carry a common theme for future humanity and, in cases, may be linked together. The latest installment is The Final Frontier: Mankind's Expansion into the Solar System.
The Great War Battle SeriesIn commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the First World War, the Microgame Design Group focused it attention on covering significant British battles on the Western Front (that have not been adequately covered), starting with Ypres 1914. Based on this game, we have now started The Great War Battles series -- games devoted to simulating battles of the First World War. Battles are covered at the brigade/regiment level using a common set of rules. Games in the series will cover a variety of situations ranging from open fighting to trench warfare.The second installment in this series is Liege 1914, the opening battle of the Great War.

Postage
A brief note about postage and pricing. The Microgame Design Group includes postage in the price of all games. With that said, postage costs from Canada can be high. If the weight crosses 200 grams, the postage cost doubles. Additional components or a second sheet of counters (e.g. Cuban Missile Crisis and Ypres 1914 have two sheets) significantly increases the price of a game. It is our goal to keep the costs low; hence, most of our games are light to keep them affordable for you. |
