Ebb & Flow: The Final Communist Offensive in Korea, 22 April-10 June 1951

Ebb & Flow (e&f) covers the last period of the Korean War that was characterized by mobile operations. The game begins with the launching of what turned out to be the last of the Communist strategic-level offensives of the whole war, and ends with the final UN riposte against it. The game therefore requires both players to successfully attack and defend over the course of the game.
