Bad Points

The shortness of the actual war does not fit in with the production model.

For sure, but how should it have been constructed. Just go with no production at all like Chess or what?

RogerCooper

@cernel Probably something a bit more like Axis & Allies: D-Day with a reinforcement schedule and limited combat rounds. More differentiation between the sides would also be good.

Still, it is interesting scenario to play as is, with the Israelis having the advantage of the central position against slightly superior Arab production.
