When first edition of these rules was published in 1989, Spanish Civil War wargaming was very much a minority interest within the hobby. Since then that interest has grown, and wargame design has evolved. This edition includes a slightly revised and re-typeset version of the original text and a whole new section that contains a new set of Spanish Civil War wargame rules from the PORTABLE WARGAME stable. It also includes a number of scenarios that wargamers can use and adapt. The book is divided into two parts and includes eleven chapters as well as list of useful resources. Part One: ¡Arriba España! General rules and playing equipment Pre-game organisation The rules for battles with 1:200 scale figures Amendments for battles with 1:300 scale figures Amendments for division-sized battles with 20mm figures Amendments for brigade-sized battles with 20mm figures Examples of unit organisation charts Playing hints Part Two: Portable Spanish Civil War wargame rules Some design notes The Portable Spanish Civil War Wargame Before battle commences Battle rules Scenarios Clash of the columns!
