ACE 187

About

ACE 187 is it two sided, three player, four unit game simulation or war game depending on which term you prefer. A fifth piece is also included. This is a tongue-in-cheek game/catalog was handed out at Origins '78 between July 13-16, 1978. Realistically, it does appear to be more of a clever way to make people look at the companies list of games. This has to be the simplest game, ever of the raid at Entebbe. There is a counter for the hostages, the PLO unit, ugandan, headquarters, a Meg, and Israeli commandos. The map is seven hexes with six wrapped around the center seventh. At the start of the game, all counters, except the Israeli commandos are put on the map. The Israeli unit lands on the airport. Combat is simple. The PLO, Meg, hostage and HQ units cannot move the Israel unit may attack on landing. Combat is after landing. Israel's win on a roll of 1 to 6 and free the hospital. Israel always wins. However, the Ugandan player may use the radio to announce that murders are not being committed and is proof foreign reporters may come to you again and look to see if there are nobody's laying around.
