About Midway Island

The first point of the four pages of its rules' manual says: "Present Avalon Hill Midway rules (1964) shall apply except where noted, as follows:" This, for sure, identify this Panzerfaust 53 insert as a Midway expansion. It expands the basic game by adding destroyers, transports, more details and, last but not least, a map of Midway Island and the ground forces that must contend it. Besides that it remains a product that shows all its age, with a spartan graphics, the best that could do, in 1972, a semi-homemade magazine like it was Panzerfaust in that period. The result is the best that could have been made by R.W. Garbisch with what could allow a magazine like Panzerfaust in 1972.
