About the game

What is Allenby's and Lawrence's Desert Wars

Fast, playable, intense operational-strategic game about the 2 wars against the Turks in Palestine and western Syria waged by the British and by the Arabs.

The British wanted the Turks out of Palestine and the Levant to replace them with British and French control, while the Arabs and TE Lawrence were fighting for Arab independence, and their nuanced victory conditions reflect that.

10 bimonthly turns. British, Turks, and Germans confined to the grid. Lawrence and Arabs can sweep anywhere out of the open desert.

Division to corps to Hejaz (camel) and Howeitat army level.
