Drive on Damascus" recreates the one major campaign between the Allies and Vichy France during World War II. It is an operational wargame recreating on the battalion level the Allied invasion of Syria and Lebanon in June 1941. This game has been built around two basic situations: the historical invasion and a hypothetical one, covering the chance of German intervention. In both cases it remains a two player wargame with each player alternately moving his pieces and resolving combat in succession. Whilst the game reproduces the situation that faced the historical commanders, the outcome will depend upon the decisions taken by players; it is perfectly possible to change the course of history.

Drive on Damascus uses a peculiar hexagon grid game map in which only the central dot of each hex is depicted.
