Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Fantastic Game
Review: Simple. Elegant. Playable. Ogre and GEV stand out as classics of SF wargaming. In Ogre, the objective is simple. The first player is the Ogre, a devastatingly powerful self-aware tank - its mission : to destroy a command post guarded by a player chosen mix of conventional units. But this is the year 2085, those units are powered infantry, armed ground effect vehicles (GEV's), tanks, howitzers and so on. In GEV, the action continues, a bigger map, more units and a host of additional scenarios that involve a mix of conventional units and/or ogres.

The game is great, simple but with tactical depth ... challenging, but easy to learn... involving, but even the largest scenario should only take up a couple of hours. I am frankly astonished that it is still available. If you like SF, enjoy wargaming and breathe, this is an excellent purchase.
