The ever-resourceful Rommel, however, simply led the Afrikakorps still deeper into the desert, going around Bir Hacheim. Once behind the Allied defenses, the panzers became a threat to the overall Allied position. British tank units were immediately ordered to counterattack Rommel's panzers, resulting in one of the largest tank engagements of the desert war on a barren tract of desert that became known as the \"cauldron.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCauldron utilizes the new Fire \u0026amp; Movement combat system that's designed so players can augment their units with \"support fire\" during the course of the battle.

A single recon battalion, for example — perhaps supported by heavy mortars — could be tasked to assault a lone enemy infantry regiment defending an outpost.

A major portion of the game is determining where to send your submarines. Do you send your boats to the distant, better-defended, merchant-rich Japanese Home Waters, or do you hit the convoys supplying the far-flung Japanese bases?

For the next four years, Allied task forces engaged elements of the Imperial Japanese fleet throughout the ocean. Marines and army units began their program of island-hopping, wresting from the Japanese the empire that they had expanded in every direction.\u003cbr\u003e War in the Pacific is a multi-level simulation of the Pacific theater of operations during World War II. The game enables players to recreate the entire course of the war, form the opening Japanese attack on 7 December, 1941 to the climatic Allied assaults in the closing days of 1945. Representing some 30% of the globe, the strategic maps let players move and engage in combat on all levels: air, ground and naval. War in the Pacific is not a simple game; there are a number of rules and concepts that will, at first, be unfamiliar to a majority of players. But playing through smaller map sections and scenarios enables the player to become familiar with the mechanics of the game.\u003cbr\u003e Components: 7 full size (22 x 34') strategic maps in full color, new tactical maps with nearly 338 individual islands for new ground units to fight over, 32 die-cut counter sheets, nearly 9,000 counters showing all types of units from the Pacific Theater, rule books, chart books and assorted displays and player aid charts\u003cbr\u003e This is a revamped version of the original game, transforming it (finally, at long last, and deservedly so) from 'valiant-failure' status into a truly impressive monster game. Emphasis is now more balanced between the supply and command sides of the operational aspects of the war; though supply management and planning (now headquarters-based) remain vitally important, detailed and challenging tasks during each Strategic Cycle. \u003cbr\u003e Operational aspects are modeled much more accurately from a historic standpoint, as is the order of battle. Leaders on many levels (and whose combat performance may be unpredictable), often serve to limit players' ability to affect the outcome of every battle to the Nth degree. A player's assignment of the right task force commander (for the right force at the right time), may spell the difference between a tactical victory and defeat. \u003cbr\u003e The ground combat system has been completely revised, substituting a step-loss system adapted from VG's 'Pacific War.' Pitched battles on islands and atolls are now resolved, including maneuver, on expanded tactical maps, rather than simply being abstractly imagined in a single hex.\u003cbr\u003e War in the Pacific's original air and naval systems are retained, in their essences, albeit with substantial modifications. Thus the game still feels like the original in those two chief aspects. Most importantly, extensive play testing has been an integral and indispensable part of this game's development (unlike the original). On the same scale as the original, War in the Pacific remains a monster game, and is not for the faint of heart.

The possibilities seemed limitless: Napoleonic era, American Revolution, Middle Ages, World Wars I \u0026amp; II, Vietnam and more. Rumors swirled, deals were consummated, but other than an Italian rip-off, none were forthcoming - until now. Days of Wonder has filled the void with a wonderful production of Memoir '44, adapting the simple yet fun-filled game system pioneered in Battle Cry to World War II, with emphasis on the Allied invasion of Normandy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is worth mentioning that the subject matter - World War II - may be sensitive to some folks. I fully understand that some individuals refuse on principle to play games dealing with warfare. If you are one of those individuals, then you are best advised to move on. Memoir '44 is a game based on the various battles that raged in connection with the Allied invasion of Normandy in June 1944. While no attempt is made to glorify warfare, the game does involve the simulation of military conflict and the resulting casualties. If you find such a subject distasteful, give this game a pass. If, however, you can separate a game from the brutality of historic conflict, then Memoir '44 is definitely worth your time and investment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMemoir '44 contains sixteen separate scenarios, ranging from the various beach invasions conducted on D-Day, to the inland battles of St. Mre-Eglise, Pegasus Bridge, Mont Mouchet and others. Two players lead the Axis and Allied forces into battle, maneuvering their infantry, artillery and armored forces across various terrain, hoping to achieve set objectives and capture the day. Each scenario has specific victory conditions (called ``Victory Medals'' in game parlance), from capturing specific objectives to eliminating enemy units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLest one think this is a complicated war game designed for the true grognard, let me assure you that it is not. Indeed, it is quite simple, serving as an excellent introduction to the war gaming field. However, it has shown much wider appeal that that, as the simple mechanisms, easy-to-learn rules and brilliant production values has made it appealing to dedicated gamers, casual gamers and families. It is also the type of game you can have hours of fun playing with your child, be it a boy or a girl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFolks familiar with Battle Cry (not the 1960's Milton Bradley American Heritage version) will be in familiar territory here. The large, double-sided board is divided into three sectors - left, center and right - and has a hex grid superimposed upon it to regulate the movement of the pieces. The terrain depicted on the board is modified by the placement of separate terrain hexes appropriate to the scenario being played. Terrain includes forests, hedgerows, hills, towns \u0026amp; villages, rivers \u0026amp; waterways, oceans, and beaches. There are also separate miniatures and counters representing bunkers, hedgehogs, sandbags and wire. This abundance of terrain and obstacles not only provides quite a bit of variety and strategic challenges, but it also allows for players to devise their own scenarios and adapt the board as needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlayers set-up the terrain their forces as prescribed in the appropriate scenario. Activation and movement of units is dictated by a deck of ``Command'' cards. These cards generally allow players to activate, move and\/or fire various units in various battlefield sectors. For instance, the ``Probe'' card allows the player to activate two units in the specified sector (right, left or center), while the ``Armor Assault'' card allows the player to activate up to four armor units, wherever they may be located on the battlefield. Players alternate playing cards, moving and firing the appropriate units, and drawing a card to replace the one played. Depending upon the scenario, the number of cards held by each player may vary. This is done in an effort to reflect the actual command situation that existed in the historical encounter, and sometimes to help balance the scenario a bit better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach type of unit has its own movement and fire capabilities. These capabilities can be further modified by the terrain and scenario restrictions. For instance, infantry can normally move one space and still fire, or two spaces and not fire. However, if they enter a forest or town, they must end their movement and may not fire. Armor is much more mobile, while artillery is slower. One of the challenges is to coordinate these three types of units for maximum effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFiring is a simple matter of rolling dice, hoping to roll symbols matching the targeted unit. The number of dice rolled depends upon several factors:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1) The type of unit attacking; 2) The distance the firing unit is from the target unit; and 3) The terrain occupied by the targeted unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor example, an attacking infantry unit located adjacent to the targeted unit rolls three dice. If the target is located two hexes away, the attacker rolls two dice. If the target is three hexes away - the maximum distance in order for an infantry unit to fire - the attacker only rolls one die. If the target is located in a forest, town or behind certain obstacles, the number of dice rolled is further reduced. Artillery suffers similar reductions, while attacking armor always rolls three dice, reduced only by terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach ``hit'' results in the removal of a unit from the targeted group. Most groups contain multiple units, meaning they can suffer several casualties before being completely eliminated. An eliminated group results in a ``Victory Medal'' for the attacker, with the accumulation of a prescribed number of victory medals resulting in victory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with most military simulation games, there are other rules pertaining to line-of-sight, retreats, terrain, special units, and or peculiar situations. These rules are very straightforward and easy to grasp. There truly is nothing complicated here. There is little doubt that ``playability'' was stressed over historical accuracy. For many, many people - myself included - that is just fine. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the occasional detailed, historically accurate war game. I still adore Squad Leader and Paths of Glory. However, Memoir '44 doesn't pretend to play in that league. Rather, it is clearly designed to be an easy, fast-playing game that can be played by all age groups. The emphasis here is squarely on ``fast fun'' as opposed to detailed simulation. In this regard, Memoir '44 accomplishes its goal quite splendidly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdding to the fun are the outstanding production values of the game. The game contains 180 detailed miniatures representing the Axis \u0026amp; Allied forces, as well as various obstacles. The graphic illustrations on the Command cards are clear and pleasing, as are the board and terrain graphics. The rules are lavishly illustrated in full color, and are easy to read and understand. I can't imagine many people having trouble quickly learning the game straight from the box. Everything here screams ``quality'', and the extra touches - including the plastic holders on which players display their cards - are a true mark of excellence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDays of Wonder seems committed to supporting Memoir '44, and have already released several new scenarios. Further, they have made available a program on their website wherein players can devise their own scenarios. I don't think it will be too long before we see expansion packs, or even further games using the same system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo what's not to like? Well, taken for what it is meant to be - a light, easy-to-learn ``war'' game - not much. However, some folks may well quibble with a few issues. First and probably foremost will be the ``luck of the draw'' issue regarding the Command cards. Like many games utilizing cards, some of the cards are more powerful than others. It is possible for one player to simply get lucky and draw more powerful cards than his opponent. It is also possible for a player to go many turns without drawing cards which allow him to activate units in a particular sector. These situations can be frustrating and may well be enough to tarnish the opinion of some. Over the course of a game or two, such issues should generally level-out - but they can be disturbing when they surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother factor to consider is that the scenarios are not very balanced. The Axis have clear advantages in some, while the Allies have the upper-hand in others. The designer has been very up-front in stating that it was not his intent to ``balance'' the scenarios. Rather, he attempted to make them as close to historical accuracy as the simplicity of the game system allows. That is the main reason the rules call for player to play a scenario twice, switching sides between games.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCould the game be improved? Sure - few games couldn't benefit from some tinkering. However, I really don't see much need here. As mentioned, for what it is attempting to do, Memoir '44 easily achieves its goal. It is simple, yet there are decisions to be made regarding which units to activate, where to move them, when to launch an assault, when to hunker down in defense, etc. Managing one's cards and planning one's maneuvers are critical elements in the game. Rolling well also doesn't hurt! Memoir' 44 is a very good game, filled with fun and exciting moments. It is a game that should have wide appeal - and deserves to reach a wide audience.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Days of Wonder","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":30597458698,"sku":"DOW7301","price":59.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1380\/9101\/products\/memoir-44_959d98ee-7a7b-46e9-8d60-2a4f7a634c14.jpg?v=1569058282"},{"product_id":"folio-series-crusader-battle-for-tobruk","title":"Folio Series: Crusader - Battle for Tobruk","description":"\u003cp\u003e'Folio series' game.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe port-town of Tobruk was the key to Libya. The Axis had been besieging it since April 1941, threatening to push the Allies back into Egypt. The Afrikakorps, commanded by Irwin Rommel, had already defeated the Allies' previous attempt to relieve Tobruk, Operation Battleaxe, but a new, surprise Allied offensive in November 1941, Operation Crusader, would evolve into one of the most chaotic and near-run battles of the entire North African campaign.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrusader utilizes the new Fire \u0026amp; Movement combat system that's designed so players can augment their units with \"support fire\" during the course of the battle. From mortars to tanks, units can receive support assets to engage enemy positions and formations, allowing combat to develop at all levels. A single recon battalion, for example — perhaps supported by air cover — could be tasked to assault a lone enemy infantry regiment defending a key hilltop. As that attack gets underway, the recon battalion may find itself under the guns of enemy artillery.

(Advanced Squad Leader Module 14) provides the ASL player with the complete order of battle for the Finns, including every major vehicle, gun, and squad type that saw combat during World War II. Chapter H distills years of research into pages of detailed notes on the guns and vehicles involved. Included along with three new Finnish squad types are the revised Chapter A rules to handle them. Finnish ordnance and armor throughout this period are represented from the single Landsverk armored car that was the only combat-worthy Finnish AFV at the start of the Winter War, through the end of the Lapland War, when Finnish armor included captured Russian AFVs and Sturmgeschuetz purchased from Germany. Modern tanks like the T-34\/85 or StuG IIIG were in the distinct minority, however, and the Finnish player will often find himself equipped with obsolete tanks such as T-26s and T-28s when facing the enemy. The Soviet Union was Finland's chief adversary, and Hakkaa Paalle! also contains new vehicles and Chapter H notes for the Russians. Fan-propelled sleds (aerosans, both armed and not), ad-hoc armed LANO trucks, early war versions of the T-26 (the two-turreted T-26 M31 and the flamethrower-armed OT-26, among others), up-armed T-28s, and the experimental SMK and T-100 tanks are all included. Additionally, a number of Lend-Lease Vehicles (Lee, Matilda II, Valentine VIII, Churchill III, etc.) now see Russian counter form. To simulate the lackluster performance of the Russian forces during the Winter War, SSR-invoked rules for Russian Early War Doctrine are included. Captured French tanks such as the 38H 735(f) and the 35-S 739(f) used by the Germans in Finland are included in German colors, along with similar German AFV counters whose availability to ASL players was previously limited. Player aid dividers include the National Capabilities Chart with the new Finnish squad types and other updates, backed by the standard OBA flowchart. Also enclosed are new rules for Prepared Fire Zones and Light Woods, transforming the battlefield for mapboards old and new. The heavily wooded mapboard 52 completes the package. Hakkaa Paalle! is not a complete game. Ownership of the Advanced Squad Leader Game System is required for play.
