Europe Engulfed plays fast, with its focus on playability and making the players feel the pressures their historical counterparts were under. Once the systems are mastered, the entire campaign is playable in a single 10-14 hour day. Wood blocks for land units provide a realistic fog of war as only the controlling player can see if their units are armour or infantry, weak or strong, until combat is engaged. The inability to know the precise strength of your opponent ensures that even the most experienced player will make their fair share of tactical and strategic errors. A total of 284 wood blocks are used to represent the corps and armies of the major and minor powers. The entire campaign is playable in a single 10-to-14 hour day once players become familiar with its elegant game systems.
