At the beginning of the October 1973 Yom Kippur War, Syrian helicopter borne commandos captured the Israeli top-secret military outpost at the top of the 6,000ft Mount Hermon. Two days after capture, the Israeli's failed at retaking the outpost in a daylight attack. Two weeks later, they launched the second assault at night and after heavy fighting, recaptured the outpost. Peak Courage is an area movement - impluse game that covers both Israeli assaults.
