Quartermaster General

Quartermaster General is a fast‑paced wargame that puts each player in charge of the major powers of World War II. The core focus is logistics: supplies are the lifeblood that keeps armies and navies fighting, and cutting enemy lines forces opposing forces to surrender quickly. Each player controls one or more countries, belonging either to the Allied or Axis team, and tries to rack up victory points for their side. Points are earned in two ways: by playing each nation’s unique deck of cards to move, attack, or reinforce, or by occupying the starred supply spaces scattered across the global map. Every nation brings a distinct card set reflecting its historical and strategic quirks. Wooden army and navy pieces add a tactile charm to area placement. The game runs for twenty rounds; at the end, the team with the most points wins. While the theme is heavyweight, the mechanics are very approachable, blending hand management, area control, and team‑based play. A typical playtime is about 90 minutes, and the complexity rating is light (around 2.3/5), making it suitable for seasoned wargamers as well as newcomers to war games. The French edition includes the Air Marshal expansion, sold separately in the English version, adding an aerial dimension to the conflict. In short, Quartermaster General offers a quick, strategic experience with plenty of team interaction and logistical decisions that truly matter.
