August 1914 is a stand-alone game in the Infantry Attacks series, the World War One equivalent to the long-running Panzer Grenadier series. Units are companies and squadrons, and the forty scenarios represent actions from the opening battles of 1914 in East Prussia and Poland between the Russian and German armies. Forces include the German Army's regular and reservist infantry, Landwehr, cavalry, artillery and the Prussian Guard. The Russian Army brings its own infantry, grenadiers, regular cavalry, Cossacks, artillery and Plastuns.
