Defiance: 2nd Russo-Ukrainian War 2022-? | GMT Games<\/strong><\/h1>\n

The Defiance: 2nd Russo-Ukrainian War 2022-? is a modern operational and strategic wargame by GMT Games that simulates the initial phase of the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Volume 1: Miracle on the Dnipro 2022 focuses on the operations of Kyiv and Chernihiv, from February 24 to approximately April 1, 2022.<\/p>\n

Designed by D.B. Dockter and Mark Herman, Defiance evolves the system of Flashpoint: Golan<\/em>, incorporating political and strategic parameters as well as elements of modern multi-domain warfare.<\/p>\n

At the core of Defiance 2nd Russo-Ukrainian War is a chit-pull activation system. Players use Logistics Points to acquire formation chits, which are placed in a common pool and determine the activation of military formations. HQs play a critical role, providing operational capabilities and access to modern support assets.<\/p>\n

Air force, missiles, drones, helicopters, artillery, logistics, detection, and troop quality combine in a demanding system that attempts to reflect the peculiarities of the modern battlefield.<\/p>\n

The Defiance: Miracle on the Dnipro includes multiple two-player scenarios, smaller engagements, and a comprehensive campaign. Additionally, a bot for the Russian side allows solitaire play with the player taking on the Ukrainian forces.<\/p>\n

With an operational\/strategic scale, brigade and army-level formations, and units representing battalions and companies, Defiance GMT Games appeals to fans of modern wargames, military simulation games, operational wargames, strategic board games, and historical conflict simulations seeking a deep system of modern warfare.<\/p>\n
