BGG: “Old School Tactical is a new system for tactical level war-games. This first game involves small unit engagements are fought on the Eastern Front during 1941-42.

Players contest each scenario using counters representing the soldiers, guns and vehicles that fought these battles.

The unique Impulse system varies the number of actions each side can take in a turn, creating intense firefights. Play moves back and forth between players and the dynamics of the battle can ‘turn on a dime’.”

(I assume “Old School Tactical” refers to a pre-Squad Leader approach to tactical play, but as I haven’t had a chance as yet to play it this is just a guess on my part.- Fred)
