You can pretty much think of Military Madness as a lost branch of Nintendo's "Wars" series, except with a hex grid rather than a square one, and the fact that you can't build new units (but you can capture factories to repair your existing ones). There are a few new mechanics, though, such as granting bonuses depending on the number of units surrounding your attacking unit and your units becoming a bit more powerful each time they engage an enemy and survive. However, the online manual is surprisingly unhelpful in explaining these things; in fact, it doesn't really tell you much except about basic moving and attacking. I guess they were just in a rush to get the game out or something.
score:
Recommended if you like strategy titles. Try to find a guide or a manual before you play, though.
UPDATE: Found a pretty good site about the game and its mechanics here. There are a lot of broken links, but you can check out the manual scans for specific info.

Watch out for tiles bonuses on the incoming enemy side, they absolutely turn the tides in every map if you're not careful.
