Description

Maiwand and the British garrison at Kandahar is under siege. A British relief force is sent to relieve the Kandahar garrison and smash the Afghan forces under Ayub Khan. The Afghans have prepared impressive defenses utilizing the rugged terrain and have as much artillery as the British. The Afghans expect to impose another crushing defeat against the relief column.

The "Battle of Kandahar" is a low-to-moderate complex tactical game covering the British attack against the Afghans at Kandahar in 1880. The game takes about 90 minutes to play. One player commands the British forces and the other player commands the Afghan forces. Cards vary game play.
