Black Swan  is a block wargame covering WWII in Europe from 1939 to 1945.

As in all other block games, both the Fog of War and Unit strength reduction/increase by rotation drive gameplay in Black Swan, as a player cannot know the identity or the strength of an enemy block until it is revealed in combat.

Black Swan is a historical game with some fixed starting points, but the outcome is completely unpredictable, and despite the historical result, the Axis Side (Germany and Italy) can defeat the Allied Side (France, Great Britain, US and the Soviet Union).

Developed with a system of wooden blocks and cubes and played out over an astonishing 125x87 cm (49"x34") full laminated multicolor mapboard, the only paper component in the box is the rules manual. In total, more than 500 wooden/sticker components have been created by the best Italian artisinal industry. Wooden parts are painted "A buratto", a technique usually adopted for painting car parts and accessories.

With over 220 unit counters, players can enjoy hours of fun by playing the "Black Swan Campaign" from 1939 to 1945, the shorter 1941-1945 Campaign, or by playing one of the five scenarios. Each one has a different difficulty level, rated in brackets from 1 (Very Easy) to 10 (Very Hard):
