Description

Memoir '44: Winter Wars is an expansion that drops you right into the harsh and bitter fights of World War II, where the cold and snow-covered environments of the Ardennes during Christmas 1944 become your battlefield. Designed by Richard Borg, this 2010 expansion is easy to learn and can be played with a friend in 45 to 90 minutes. As you delve into the ten scenarios included, you'll need to utilize the new Winter Combat rules, Command cards, and Troops, such as the Tank Destroyer and Heavy Anti-Tank Gun units, to outmaneuver your opponent. The expansion comes packed with everything you need to combat in a snow-covered environment, including Winter tiles, Special Unit badges, round markers, obstacles, and Winter Combat cards. The first six scenarios can be played with just the base game and this expansion, while the four Breakthrough scenarios require additional expansions, but offer a thrilling and gigantic rendition of the Battle of the Bulge. Whether you're a seasoned player or new to the Memoir '44 series, Winter Wars offers a unique and engaging experience that will put your strategic skills to the test in the midst of one of the war's most pivotal moments.
