Title: Barsoomian Battle Manual: Rules for Adventure Gaming
Item Code: 1596
Type: Science-fantasy combat rules
Copyright: 1978 by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc.
Author: Scott Bizar
Artwork: Russ Manning
Place of Publication: Dallas, Texas, United States
Format: 50 page softcover
ISBN: n/a
Cover Price: n/a
Mass: 144g
Dimensions: length 28cm, width 20.8cm, thickness .3cm

From the introduction: "Few fictional worlds have created the interest that has grown from the Mars of Edgar Rice Burroughs. As a world of constant warfare and adventure, it is naturally of special interest to the wargamer. In this area we are quite fortunate in the amount of information on military organization provided by Burroughs. Unfortunately, we do not have similar information on the relative strengths of the various nations and empires of the dominant Red Race of Mars. Such statistics must be extrapolated from the performance of these nations in their never-ending strife on Barsoom."

Even though the interior content appears the same, the size and front and rear covers are different in this version also dated 1978.
