"On April 24, 1980, the United States launched a rescue mission to free 53 hostages held captive in Iran. Three helicopters failed on the way. The mission was aborted. What if it had gone in? RAID ON IRAN is a simulation of what might have been ... if the rescue mission had reached Teheran. The American commandos must find and free the embassy hostages - while holding off Iranian mobs and militants and get them safely to the helicopters. An alternate scenario examines the possibility that commandos might have tried to abduct the Ayatollah Khomeini himself... to exchange him for the hostages! Components include full-color 16" x 21" embassy map; 119 counters in 3 colors; illustrated rules, charts, and tables; ziplock bag for counters; and plastic Pocket Box."
