Description
Patton's 3rd Army: The Lorraine Campaign is a classic wargame that drops you into the midst of World War II, where you'll take on the role of a military commander leading either the German or American forces. Designed by Joseph M. Balkoski and first published in 1980, this game is all about strategic grid movement and dice rolling, with a healthy dose of simulation and events to keep things exciting. With a playtime that can range from 4 to 30 hours, you'll have plenty of time to immerse yourself in the action, which takes place on a hexagon grid. The game's normal complexity means it's easy to learn, even if you're new to wargames, and the combat results table and movement points systems add a layer of depth to the gameplay. Whether you're a history buff or just a fan of strategy games, Patton's 3rd Army is a challenging and engaging experience for two players.
