Reminds me of the second computer wargame I bought. The first was SSI's Battles of Napoleon for C64.

The second was "Operation Merkur". In the late 80s/early 90s there were monthly C64 magazines with floppy disks enclosed. Usually it would be some demos (which at the time meant sound/animation by a demo group), trial games but also full games. This one came on Golden Disk 64. Of course the graphics looked like puke, but it was the first computer game in which I staged an airborne assault. :wub:

Who are the purple, beet colored counters at the very bottom?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

What is the name of the game, anyway?

I just like that that the Hungarian counters are the color of beets.

14.3.4.5.3.2a  All Hungarian divisions use an extra 12000L of water per day to boil beets.  Remove this extra water from the Water Table (5.6.4.2.7.5c) when determining Water Used Daily (WUD) calculations for movement.
I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.
