==Legacy== While not the first boxed [[solitaire board wargame]] to be produced (Avalon Hill's ''[[B-17, Queen of the Skies]]'' had preceded it in 1983), ''Ambush!'' was probably the most successful. While the additional modules are testament to this successful design, the concept also appears to have been validated by ''Ambush!'', as a fair number of other purpose-designed solitaire games (as opposed to two player games that "could" be played solitaire) followed it shortly after. These include: * ''[[Tokyo Express: The Guadalcanal Naval Campaign β 1942|Tokyo Express]]'' (Victory Games, 1988) * ''Open Fire'' (Victory Games, 1988) * ''[[London's Burning (game)|London's Burning]]'' (Avalon Hill, 1995) - a solitaire game of the Battle of Britain * ''[[Advanced Squad Leader#Solitaire ASL|Solitaire Advanced Squad Leader]]'' (Avalon Hill, 1995)
