Units have 1 side step reduction. Object of the game is to take cities and kill enemy units. Points are awarded for both. Weather in Operation Typhoon is handled in a very interesting way. As weather gets worse, movement points are deducted. Simple and effective. A typical game should not last more than 30-45 minutes at the longest. 4 pages of rules.
