Assault on Arnhem is an easy game to start playing, although underneath the simple façade lies a much deeper level of complexity.

I am outraged by the lack of depth this game offers. It's dull 2D representation of war is confusing and unbalanced. Nothing works as it should, and the die rolls are never in your favor. Please do yourself a favor and step away from the table.2 found this helpful
Plays great! Easy to move pieces, attack & defend. Have to pay attention to your supply situations. Only wish there were a way to shift supplies beween the various headquarters. No airforce functions. No weather variations.
Old School board game brought to life... very light learning curve so you can just play and enjoy rather than get bogged down in rules. The combat results seem realistic although personally i think the heavy battle-hardened German armor should fare a little better. All in all I definitely recommend for war game enthusiasts
I enjoy the antithetic history and timings for battle. it puts the whole Operation into perspective.
Excellent war game, reminds me of Hell's Highway and Highway to the Reich. Very simple but challenging. Worth the price.
