Description
Las Malvinas, The Falklands Conflict is the second game in the BTW game series. Dealing with the conflict between the Argentines and the UK in 1982, the game provides an operational examination of one of the few modern wars fought between land and naval forces.
Against all the odds the Royal Navy gained sea control, air parity (some might say superiority) and landed British troops in San Carlos water to commence the liberation of the illegally occupied āLas Malvinasā.
The Falklands Conflict provides players with an entry to the modern warfare element of the BTW series, and includes several what if options along with a hypothetical āFalklands ā88ā module examining the potential outcome of tensions which erupted once substantial mineral deposits were discovered in British Territorial Waters surrounding the Islands.
What if the Argentines had decided to make another illegal land grab over ruling the oft stated desire of the Falklands populace to remain British?
Currently in development, it is too early to confirm pricing, but it is intended to be below Ā£100 GBP plus vat if in the UK, shipped world wide.
