Abstract: Time:: The Nineteenth Century
 
Place: The Frontier between Anchovy and Baklava
 
Anchovy has assembled a large army to invade Baklava,
a neighboring state. The aim of the invasion is to capture
a majority of the Baklavan towns or to destroy the opposing
army. Baklava hopes to resist long enough to force an armistice,
or to counter-attack and capture Anchovian towns, or to drive
out or destroy the invaders.
 
GENRAL is a game of resource management. Cavalry, infantry,
and artillery units contend for control of roads, rivers, hills,
towns, bridges, and forests. Strategic decisions must be
made in Real Time, aided by statistical reports and
animated video displays of 49 different sectors. A
fourteen-page instruction manual and an extensive set of
detailed maps are provided on the tape.
