Now that’s an old one……never enjoyed it much to be honest.  I finally sold my copy during the covid lockdown  . It had been in various lofts for a good fifty five years…..sold my original copy of Escape from Colditz at the same time.  I had a good collection of board games as a kid.  Pointless really, I was an only child

Brave  to say that Harry. 

I too still have my Battle of the Little Big Horn, & Escape from Colditz, & Campaign, & Diplomacy, & Decline & Fall, & Sea-Strike,  &&&&&&

Campaign is great, used it many time for a... campaign!

Custer's Last Stand, but not as you know it.
When I got this game, Crimbo '64, it took me and our kid till Easter to master the rools!

We used to play this game as kids in the seventies. The figures were better painted as I recall so maybe it was a later version.

On a semi-related note, my wife and I are taking a vacation out to the Dakotas next week.  A stop at Fort Abraham Lincoln (from where Lt. Col. Custer and the 7th Cavalry departed on their way to infamy...) is on the agenda.

I’m trying to talk my mate into a motorcycle tour of the States 🇺🇸

Cool.  Ours a BIG country, though.  You'll want to do some careful planning, but there are military history sites (battlefields, forts, museums, etc.) all over the place...

Himself will take a very dim view of that dreadful slander. Sleep with one eye open. One dawn you'll wake up to a bronzed, and warpainted savage, who's called for breakfast!

Nice to see a referral to campaign.  That was another one I sold in Lockdown…….anyone come across Tri Tactics?  That was  good fun as well.
