Brief Border Wars 2 is the second set of four small operational level games on short border conflicts. The game system uses a card-driven system first introduced in Brief Border Wa rs that models the chaotic, stop-and-start nature of these impromptu wars. Four sets of exclusive rules reflect the peculiar nature of each conflict. Your sense of improvisation will be challenged as you explore four of the more interesting small wars fought in the early 20th century. The four conflicts include: 1913: Second Balkan War (also known as “The Interallied War”) - Bulgaria vs Romania and Ottoman forces.1919: The Seven-Day War (also known as “Teschen”): Czechoslovakia and Poland fight for the Duchy of Teschen (Cieszyn in Polish).1939: The Nomonhan Incident (also known as “The Battle of Khalkin Gol”) - Japan and the Soviet Union clash in Mongolia.1940: The Italo-Greek War (also known as “The Balkan Defiance”) - The first two months of the Italian invasion of Greece in the fall/winter of 1940. These games are ideal short matches to finish off an evening of gaming, or fill a lunch hour.
