The African Campaign: Designer Signature Edition

Product detailed description

The African Campaign, Designer Signature Edition, presents the return of the true war classic by John Edwards, which is remastered and updated in this brand new edition. This two-player game, celebrated as "Africa Korps at its best", allows players to explore key elements of the desert war, starting in December 1940 with the first Wavell offensive, Operation Compass, against Marshal Graziani's Italian forces, and culminating in December 1942 when the Americans landed in Rommel's rear, sealing the final fate of the Africa Korps.

The African Campaign recreates the ebb and flow of battles and extensive actions in the desert, as the pendulum swings during the North African campaign, when both sides launch major offensives. The game is fast-paced due to low counter density, while capturing key aspects of the campaign including supply, ports, replacements, Axis fuel, strategic movements, air power, Flak units, minefields, and more.
