James Bond 007 Assault Game

Based on the climactic assault by James Bond and assorted ninjas and intelligence operatives on a secret rocket launching base hidden in a volcano in Japan, the game pieces seem pretty generic and some miniatures would definitely spruce things up. The game seems made for that kind of conversion. It uses a chit-activation system and supposedly can be played solo.

The game was actually part of a larger James Bond role-playing system which offered under license an impressive range of components. The game was apparently successful but when the license lapsed in 1987, the game went out of print.
