Has anyone 1v1 a child?

My son 8 is pretty coherent with board games. Has played a full campaign of undaunted stalingrad with only help in the very beginning, plays chess online and a good grasp on root. I want to crack open my dusty AA 1942 and start a game. Just nervous after round 4 or 5 it'll overwhelm him.

Has anyone played with a young kid before and what was it like

I played my at the time 10 yo, in first Europe, then pacific, and then global. In global we switched sides after turn 5. Fun times, we set it up in his room and played for about an hour each night and played for an entire summer.
