Nations At War: Desert Heat 2nd Edition Companion

Armored Warfare in the Burning Sands

Nothing in the desert is close. You see the dust before you see the tanks, and you have to decide what to do about it while they are still a long way out.

You take a formation and put it somewhere it can hurt something.

Italians, Germans and Vichy French on one side. British and Commonwealth troops, Americans and Free French on the other. Panzer IIIs and IVs with Tigers when they arrive, Crusaders and Matildas, Shermans and Italian M13/40s. Eighty-eights sited where they can see a very long way, and 25-pounders answering them. Stukas, Hurricanes, P-40s and Macchis overhead, and Bersaglieri and Fallschirmjäger on the ground.

You Never Know Who Moves Next

Your forces are activated by a formation deck, so nobody at the table knows how a turn is going to play out until the cards start turning over.

Nations At War: Desert Heat 2nd Edition Companion book covers all the module rules, scenarios and important player aids. The Companion book can be used along with our board game edition or for virtual gaming online.
