Third Reich Overview
Third Reich is a digital adaptation of a board game, focusing on the European conflict of World War II. Players can assume command of either the Axis or Allied powers, with gameplay unfolding on a hexagonal map of the continent.
Strategic management is central, requiring careful allocation of a nation's gross national product. This economic resource funds all military construction and the subsequent deployment of armies to various fronts. The conflict progresses in quarterly turns, each containing distinct phases for operations like initiating hostilities, moving units, and resolving combat.
Victory is not achieved solely through military annihilation. The game offers multiple scenarios, each with specific objectives that guide a player's strategy. An early strategic decision involves choosing where to first declare war, a choice that significantly influences the campaign's entire trajectory. The nations involved are categorized as major military powers or neutral states.
