The final chapter is a four turn replay of SPI's Nordlingen.

There are four appendices: Answers to Problems (the book includes six wargame situations for the reader to analyze), Useful Addresses (no longer very useful due to their age) and PanzerBlitz and Panzer Leader: Game of Tactical Warfare on the Western Front free-choice selection unit values.
224 page hardbound book with dust jacket, black and white photographs. SPI's Strike Force One: The Cold War Heats Up – 1975 minigame is included as an insert inside the back cover.
