Victory goes to the player who wins 5 of the 9 battle flags (an envelopment) or three adjacent flags (a breakthrough).

The buildings will be placed within the grid and identified with control markers (wooden cubes) to show each player's contribution to the growing urban area. Each building's value is determined by the cumulative Wealth and Prestige values of the block in which is it constructed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt the start of a player's turn he may discard one or more Building Permit cards from hand as \"Investments,\" gaining Wealth in doing so.

Wealth payouts provide funding for new buildings while Prestige payouts provide victory points.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGenerally, players will be trying to build in areas that provide better payouts. Players are also looking to construct more buildings of a particular \"zone\"—Government, Residential, Industrial, or Commercial—in order to help them win an election, as the politicians each confer a special ability to the player holding the office. Many of the buildings also provide a one-time bonus as they are built, and players can benefit from construction in the right neighborhoods.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThroughout the game, the values of the buildings will generally increase as the town grows into a city and then a large metropolis.

While the threat of nuclear holocaust disappeared, newer and more sinister forms of conflict would take its place.  Where once superpowers bestrode the globe, decentralized networks and even individuals now command the world's attention. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Deluxe Edition of Twilight Struggle seeks to capture the feeling of  that earlier era.  Twilight Struggle is a two-player game simulating the forty-five year dance of intrigue, prestige, and occasional flares of warfare between the Soviet Union and the United States. Using the card-driven game mechanics pioneered in such award winning games as We the People and Hannibal: Rome vs. Carthage, Twilight Struggle recreates the conflict between the most powerful nation states the world has ever known. The scope of the game covers the entire world as it was found in 1945.  Players move units and exert influence in attempts to gain allies and control for their superpower. As with GMT's other card-driven games, decision-making is a challenge; how to best use one's cards and units given consistently limited resources?

Each player controls one or more of the major powers that presided over European politics in that day. Spain is the juggernaut, able to draw upon the vast riches of their global empire. But such a dominant power is sure to have many enemies. The Ottoman expansion towards Spain's Mediterranean outposts remains unchecked. Elizabeth's English sea dogs are poised to raid Spain's overseas empire. And the forces of Protestant reform will soon drag Spain into eighty years of rebellion in the Netherlands. Will Spain find aid from its Catholic allies? Perhaps not from France, where the Catholic Valois dynasty is soon to engage another group of Protestant believers in the bloody French Wars of Religion. And even Philip's relatives in Vienna who rule the Holy Roman Empire may dabble in the Protestant faith instead of remaining loyal to their Catholic heritage and Spanish brethren.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe six powers in Virgin Queen are:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOttoman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHoly Roman Empire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtestants (Dutch \u0026amp; Huguenots)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVirgin Queen: Wars of Religion 1559-1598\u003c\/strong\u003e is the sequel to \u003cem\u003eHere I Stand\u003c\/em\u003e, another card-driven game of grand strategy that covered the previous forty years (from Martin Luther's posting of his 95 Theses in 1517 through the abdication of Charles V in 1556).

Drafting, teamwork, accidents, yellow flags, pit strategy, working to lead laps, and sprints to the finish are all included and bring the feel of racing to the game. Players control not one car, but a team of 3-6 cars. Thus, each race is not only a run for the checkered flag but an effort to maximize the score for every car on your team. Winning is important, but if only one car crosses the finish line, your team might end up outside the winner's circle looking in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe game includes four different types of movement, often with many cars moving with the play of a single card, and each type has its place and time:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolo movement allows you to break away from the pack.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDraft and pursuit movement are best used for keeping your team of cars together.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLead movement can create a pack of cars that moves toward the front.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurns are fast, each play is important, and the track situation is fluid. The wrong movement in the wrong situation can be disastrous, with you possibly being left out of the draft and all alone. Experienced players will be able to identify the best type of movement for the current situation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCars suffer wear over the course of a race and need to take pit stops. Tire wear, suspension difficulties, fuel issues, and major engine and transmission problems are all modeled in the game. If you feel lucky, you might try to hold it together just a little bit longer in hopes that a yellow flag will come out and cause a mass rush into the pits. Waiting on a yellow that never comes can be maddening as the rest of the pack moves by your worn-out car.

It would then suffer under \"Mad\" Tsar Paul I, until his assassination in 1801, which brought his son Alexander I to the throne. Alexander, in command of a Russian army that was as vast as the territory from which it was drawn, did his best by various treaties and alliances to counter the increasing power of France under Napoleon without going to war.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Russian army at the time of Napoleonic wars still had many characteristics of Peter the Great’s regime; senior officers were largely recruited from aristocratic circles, and the Russian soldier was regularly beaten and punished to instill discipline. Furthermore, many lower-level officers were poorly trained. Yet the Russians involved in hostilities with its neighbors - Sweden, Poland, Turkey and Austria - were capable of astonishing feats and total, blind obedience to orders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1805 Britain and Russia signed an alliance against France. In 1806, Prussia joined the Coalition and Prussia and Russia mobilized for a fresh campaign. After Napoleon’s humiliation of Prussia at Jena, the French Emperor turned his attention to subduing his Russian foe and marched into Poland. After a series of sanguinary battles, the French drove Russian forces out of Poland back to Mother Russia and created a new Duchy of Warsaw, but made a solid treaty between the two nations at Tilsit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1812, the Russo-French treaty gradually became strained, as the requirement of joining France's Continental Blockade against Great Britain was a serious disruption of Russian commerce. Bonaparte decided to bring the Russians back into line in June, and invaded Russia hoping to inflict a major defeat on the Russians and force Alexander to sue for peace. The invasion of Russia and the retreat of the French army, as many historians point out, proved to be the turning point in the Napoleonic Wars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1813 Russia opened the campaign against Napoleon joined by Prussia and Austria, and during the three-day battle of Leipzig, Bonaparte's fate was sealed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this expansion you will find 18 historical scenarios that focus on the Russian Army battles from 1806 to 1814 against Napoleon, plus all the new units you’ll need to field for these engagements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Richard Borg\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GMT Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":974160329,"sku":"1301-23 - Exp (Blue + Green)","price":74.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic1542765.jpg?v=1578608969"},{"product_id":"1862-railway-mania-in-the-eastern-counties","title":"1862: Railway Mania in the Eastern Counties","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" padding=\"1\" margin=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/mike-hutton\"\u003eMike Hutton\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/all\/\"\u003eGMT Games\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2-8\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlaytime\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e300 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Age\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 and up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr id=\"bgg-row\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Info\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd id=\"bgg-column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"bgg-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e66837\/1862-railway-mania-eastern-counties\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"bgg-forum-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003ehttp:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgame\/66837\/1862-railway-mania-eastern-counties\/forums\/63\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e1862: Railway Mania in the Eastern Counties is an 18xx game set in East Anglia, England.

Yet there are a number of battles, Bailen, Tamames, Alcaniz and San Marcial where the Spaniards fought valiantly and gained victory. Ironically, the point most historians overlook is the fact that the Spanish armies constituted a threat that the French simply could not ignore. As good as Wellington’s Anglo-Portuguese field army was, that army faced multiple French armies. They could only defeat one French army at a time.

While the game focuses on 10 of the historical conferences from 1943 till the end of the war these and much of this design should not be taken literally. Before and after each conference small groups of advisors and senior officials moved between the Allied capitals making the deals that drove the post war peace. Each conference sees one of a group of issues nominated for inclusion in the conference. The issues categories are: Theater leadership changes, directed offensives, production priorities, clandestine operations, political activity, and strategic warfare (A-bomb). Each of the historical conference cards independently puts some number of issues such as directed offensives or production priorities metaphorically put on the table, while the players nominate an additional 7 issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe game display for this is a circular conference table that the three players sit around behind their 'seat'. Each player has a staff deck of named personages, such as Secretary Stimson and Anthony Eden that are randomly drawn to make your conference hand. A pre-conference round of cards gives leverage to the winner who then moves an issue toward their side of the table equal to the value of the card played. Play then proceeds with the conference where each player in turn plays a card on one of the issues in the center of the conference table moving it the value of the card toward his side of the table. Each card is an historical personage and they often have bonuses if played on a particular category of issue. Contesting an issue has you move an issue away from an Ally toward your own. At all times each player has his Head of State card (Roosevelt, Churchill, or Stalin) that can weigh in on any issue once per conference by discarding another card. Each use of your personage has a bonus and a potential penalty. Each time Roosevelt is used he may die and be replaced by Harry Truman. Churchill can have a heart attack and miss the next conference, while Stalin's paranoia may cause a mini-purge and reduce his sides effectiveness for the remainder of the conference. The net result of the conference play is players will 'win' various' issues with the player who won the most issues gaining leverage in one of the bilateral global issues (UK versus USSR global issue is Free Europe versus Spheres of Influence).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe game then moves into a post conference phase where players implement the issues that they now control. These actions impact three basic game functions: clandestine operations, political activity, and military offensives. Clandestine operations has players try to establish political networks in conquered countries and colonies. Using a very simple mechanic of place a network or remove an opponents network the historical ferment that occurred in Yugoslavia, France and across the world is simply simulated. A country or colony can only have one dominant side's network at any given time and during political activity players can emplace friendly governments in exile that can be subsequently undermined and replaced if the supporting networks are later neutralized by one of your allies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOnce this has all been sorted out the military portion of the game keeps the score. There is a separate display that abstractly represents the major theaters of war, Western, Eastern, Mediterranean, Arctic (Murmansk convoys and Scandinavia), CBI, SW Pacific, Central Pacific, and Far East. Each of these tracks has a Allied front for which I am looking for some kind of 3D tank piece that advance toward Germany, Italy, and Japan. Using a very simple combat mechanic each front tries to advance with Axis reserves deploying to oppose the various fronts. A successful offensive advances the front one space, although with overwhelming superiority a two space breakthrough is possible. Naval operations are simply handled by requiring a defined level of support to advance into an amphibious entry space such as France (D-Day). When a front enters Germany, Italy or Japan they surrender shutting down military operations although clandestine and political activity continue until the end of the game. In the background is the development of the A-bomb and Soviet efforts to steal its secrets. If the A-bomb is available Japan can be forced to surrender sans a direct invasion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf at the end of Potsdam conference Germany, Italy, and Japan have not surrendered the Allies as represented by the players collectively lose the game. If the Axis have been defeated then tthe winner is the player with the most Cold War points portioned out for governments and networks aligned to your side, global issues, and a list of conditional situations. For example colonies with no network or political authority give Churchill points for keeping colonialism alive or which fronts caused axis surrender.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs I stated this is not a wargame, but a three player excursion into power politics. The game takes around 3 hours to finish, but I will be including a short and medium scenario. All scenarios end with Potsdam, but you will be able to start later in the war if you only have 1 or 2 hours to play. In addition the game can be played with 3 or 2 players plus solitaire. I am very excited about the new Churchill and large scale playtesting will commence by the end of the month.

EPIC Napoleonics allows for fighting larger battles with more units. EPIC Napoleonics is actually two game systems in one – the Epic Battles system, and the La Grande Battles system. Although the scope of our Napoleonic game has changed size wise, the historical feel and the basic rules of play, for the most part, remain the same. To experience the maximum enjoyment with these two new Napoleonic game formats, both EPIC Napoleonics and La Grande Battles scenarios are best played using the Command card and Tactician card decks that were part of the Generals, Marshals and Tacticians expansion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIncluded in this expansion are six standard sized scenarios that focus on key phases of the battle of Austerlitz, 2 December 1805. This expansion also features 12 EPIC sized engagements and two La Grande Battle scenarios. Also included are two double-sided mounted maps. The EPIC sided battlefield is larger, and at 11 hexes deep by 20 hexes wide, it is almost double the size of the standard size battlefield of 9 hexes deep by 13 hexes wide. When laid side-by-side to form the La Grande battlefield, the battle area is a whopping 11 hexes deep by 26 hexes wide.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn an EPIC Napoleonics game, one player on each side assumes the role of the Commander In Chief (CIC). Each CIC has a hand of Command cards and on a turn must play one card from his hand to order units in one section of the EPIC battlefield. Also on the turn, the CIC must select one card from the Courier rack to play. The card selected from the Courier rack will also order units in one section of the EPIC battlefield. There are only three sections in the EPIC battlefield (left, center and right) and with two Command cards played each turn, the action quickly becomes very fast and furious.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Courier rack is a new game mechanic, and starts each battle with five Command cards that are visible to both players. Each turn one card is taken from the rack, so the choice of cards a player has each turn is reduced, until there are only two cards remaining on the rack. The rack is then filled back to five cards before the next player’s turn, and the card selection process from the Courier rack will start again.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEPIC Napoleonic will allow two or more players to enjoy a truly Epic size battle, but it is important to note in order to play most EPIC Napoleonic scenarios, players will need a copy of the Commands \u0026amp; Colors Napoleonic game and its expansions (Spanish, Russian, Austrian, Prussian and Generals, Marshals and Tacticians) This EPIC Napoleonic expansion will only provide enough units and terrain to fill any gaps.","brand":"GMT Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":28510583501,"sku":"1608 - Exp (Blue + Red)","price":75.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic3331141.jpg?v=1680923532"},{"product_id":"clash-of-giants-civil-war","title":"Clash of Giants: Civil War","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" padding=\"1\" margin=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/ted-raicer\"\u003eTed Raicer\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/all\/gmt-games\"\u003eGMT Games\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1-2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Age\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 and up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr id=\"bgg-row\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Info\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd id=\"bgg-column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"bgg-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e149794\/clash-giants-civil-war\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"bgg-forum-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003ehttp:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgame\/149794\/clash-giants-civil-war\/forums\/63\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eClash of Giants: Civil War takes the game system from Ted S. Raicer’s popular and critically acclaimed Clash of Giants WWI series to two of the storied battles of the American Civil War: Second Bull Run and Gettysburg. CoG: Civil War uses a modified version of the chit-pull Activation system of Clash of Giants II: Campaigns of Galicia and First Ypres, 1914, while retaining the CoG combat system. Every (mostly brigade-level) unit has a Tactical Efficiency Rating based on its morale, training, leadership, and experience, but even a poor unit can have a heroic moment, while the Iron Brigade might not always be made of iron. It is a true player’s system, which produces realistic results without a lot of fiddly procedures, and allows players to concentrate on the game rather than the rules.\u003cbr\u003eUnits in CoG: Civil War are mostly infantry brigades, (with the odd cavalry brigade or demi-brigade). Each day is divided into four day turns and one night turn. The maps depict woods, hills, steep hexsides, railway cuts and embankments, roads, rivers, creeks, bridges, towns, marshy ground, and the Devil’s Den at Gettysburg.\u003cbr\u003eThe Activation rules, which combines random formation activation (mostly corps for the Union and divisions for the Confederates) with variable movement allowances, creates the fog of war and friction so important to Civil War battles. Ordering your corps commander to take a hill is one thing-getting him to act as you wish is another. And because these effects are achieved without hidden counter\/dummy unit mechanics, CoG: Civil War is not only a fast-paced two-player game, but excellent as well for solo play. Some Activation markers also allow you to coordinate more than one formation, such as Longstreet at Gettysburg. But don’t expect Old Pete to do so early in the day!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne thing that speeds play in CoG: Civil War is the unusual treatment of artillery. There are no artillery units depicted; instead artillery appears as Combat Support Markers which are added (attacker first) to the combat strength of engaged units. Artillery CSMs are generally assigned to a specific division or corps, though army reserve artillery can be used to support any units. Artillery cannot be used in combat in certain terrain (woods or town hexes), but there are no line of sight considerations to slow down play or complicate the rules. Instead both line of sight and enemy counter-battery fire are handled with an elegant abstraction: each turn all available artillery CSMs of both sides go into a cup, and then half are randomly drawn. Whatever comes out of the cup is available for use that turn, so the player with more artillery on the field is more likely to get artillery support. This also allows a simple way to model the effectiveness of the Union Artillery Reserve at Gettysburg; once arrived, these markers never go in the cup, and are always available for use. Overall, CoG: Civil War’s portrait of artillery as an occasionally decisive but definitely secondary arm is arguabley more realistic than many more complicated designs.\u003cbr\u003eThe two battles, Second Bull Run and Gettysburg, depict one of Lee’s greatest victories, prior to his first invasion of the north, and his greatest defeat during his second invasion. Both are meeting engagements, with limited forces deployed at the start, gradually building to mighty clashes. The arrival of fresh forces is another area where the game system allows variability: units may be delayed or arrive at the wrong road. You can even attempt to speed the arrival of your off-board forces, but at increased risk of their arriving later instead.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWinning involves a combination of taking and holding victory hexes, exiting units, and inflicting casualties. You can also earn victory points to compensate for units whose arrival is delayed-but only if you didn’t try to force march them to an earlier arrival! Players will have to judge trading losses for taking or holding tactically important ground.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpecial rules cover such things as General Pope’s confused and confusing orders at Second Bull Run, the Confederate grand battery on the third day at Gettysburg, the use of the Union VI Corps as a reserve in both battles, cavalry delaying actions and retreat before combat, rallying units at night, and the actions of certain key leaders. But though there is enough chrome to give each battle a distinctive flavor, the action remains uncluttered, quick-playing, and exciting.\u003cbr\u003eNot simply “another Civil War battle system,” CoG: Civil War presents a fresh new look at an oft-game topic.

It uses strategy cards and a point-to-point map similar to GMT's award winning For the People and Paths of Glory. Players maneuver and fight over a map stretching from Northern Virginia to Canada. As the leader of French or British forces in North America, you will need to defend your frontier, raid your enemy's frontier, build fortification networks through the harsh wilderness, recruit Indian allies, besiege forts and fortresses, and deal with events occurring in Europe that are above and beyond your control.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWilderness War includes a deck of strategy cards for conducting campaigns and incorporating the many events and personalities of the war.

The British player can recruit Mohawks and Cherokees, plan for and conduct amphibious operations, implement a global strategy via William Pitt, destroy the French fleet at Quiberon Bay, and expel the Acadians.

Dubbed “Case Yellow” (Fall Gelb), it relied on a surprise attack with armored forces through the Ardennes Forest that the French had deemed impenetrable. A German staff study proved otherwise, and their panzers were pushed through this broken wooded terrain with deft speed, catching the Allies by surprise with their appearance.\u003cbr\u003eIn No Retreat 3, players command the Allied (French and British) or German forces, operating them in accordance to one of several historical plans (represented by Plan cards). Manoeuvring forces over hexes that are approximately 30 kilometers across, over turns that represent 4 days of real time each, the vaunted No Retreat series card-assisted game systems are there to create on-map puzzles around each hex, unit and battle as the tense engagements rage back-and-forth and nothing is entirely predictable.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDesigner Carl Paradis has made an exhaustive study to answer the question, “Could France have staved off total defeat in 1940?” His research yields a resounding, “Yes!,” and the simulation elements of No Retreat 3, combined with its novel gameplay elements, offer a rich and insightful presentation of this controversial military campaign that shaped the trajectory of World War II.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBonus Game\u003cbr\u003eBut wait, there is more! For this deluxe edition, complete with a 2-sided mounted map and oversized counters, the 1939 Polish Campaign was also added.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis little-simulated battle will see many new concepts implemented into the “No Retreat!” game system. Given that both sides had never seen battle before and the units were mostly untried and green, a “Fog of War” game system is in use, adding much replayability to this simulation. Since that this game is fast, a complete contest will consist of two plays, with each gamer taking both sides in turn, trying to best the opponent’s performance. Some intriguing “what if” hypothetical historical options are also added: Could have France intervened more effectively, the USSR acted differently? What if Czechoslovakia was never taken over by the Nazis? Poland better prepared? All these and more are yours to try out. No Retreat!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrench Front Scenario Listing\u003cbr\u003eRegular Game: The May\/June 1940 campaign, but with an added twist. Both players will draw\/choose a “Campaign Plan Card” that will instruct them as to their general objectives. There are over 6 different cards from each side, all taken from actual historical plans; the success of which will add critical Victory Points if the game does not end in “Sudden death”. What if Hitler had attacked in winter 1939 like initially planned? Or the French Air Force had been better prepared?\u003cbr\u003eHistorical Game: The May\/June 1940 campaign, but with the Plan choices limited to the more historically plausible alternatives.\u003cbr\u003eSimulation Game: Both sides will be given the plans\/set-up used during the actual campaign. Fall Gelb no5 for the Germans, Plan Dyle A or B for the French. The game also starting with the offensive already underway, Liege taken and Holland invaded.\u003cbr\u003eOperation Dynamo: In this scenario the German “Sickle cut” maneuverer towards the sea is almost completed! As the Allies, will you be able to save the British expeditionary Corps, evacuating it at Dunkirk, or even better, pierce the enemy lines and re-join the main French Army down south?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePolish Front Scenario Listing\u003cbr\u003eRegular Game: The September 1939 campaign, but with extra choices.

One side or the other could have some extra “initiative” choices for the deployment of their troops.\u003cbr\u003eHistorical Game: The September 1939 campaign, with the exact historical set-ups of both forces. For this contest the players will take each side in turns. So the scenario will be played two times.\u003cbr\u003eAlternative History game: Players will explore many “what-if” alternatives.

Fort Sumter is a small footprint game (11x17” mounted map) that takes approximately 25-40 minutes to play. The game pits a Unionist versus a Secessionist player. Each player uses the area control mechanic pioneered in Mark Herman's We The People design and immortalized in Twilight Struggle to place, move, and remove political capital. The location of political capital determines who controls each of the four crisis dimensions (Political, Secession, Public Opinion, and Armaments). After three rounds of play, the game culminates in a Final Crisis confrontation to determine the winner.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe heart of the Fort Sumter design is Mark's CDG system where you use Strategy cards for their value or historic event to acquire political capital from the crisis track. Political capital tokens are used to compete for control of the twelve map spaces. Here the likes of William Lloyd Garrison, Sam Houston, Jefferson Davis, and Harriet Beecher Stowe walk on stage, while the Southern states dissolve the Union.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe twelve map spaces are grouped into the four dimensions of the crisis. You gain a victory point each round that you control a dimension’s three spaces. For example, the Armaments dimension is characterized by Federal Arsenals, Fort Pickens, and of course, Fort Sumter. In addition, each round you score a victory point for controlling your secret objective space. But beware; either player can score active objective spaces. At the end of the dual Presidential inaugurations (round three) a new Final Crisis mechanic drives the game to its hotly contested conclusion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUtilizing a new Final Crisis Series mechanic, you may accelerate the crisis by breaching zones (escalation, tension, final crisis) that yield bonus political capital. However, beware, as the first person to breach the final crisis zone gains political advantage, yet loses victory point ground. Each game ends with a Final Crisis, where cards set-aside during the three rounds complete your final political maneuvers that determine the winner.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"GMT Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":7809900609587,"sku":"1808","price":44.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic4096767.jpg?v=1578609400"},{"product_id":"versailles-1919","title":"Versailles 1919","description":"\u003ctable padding=\"1\" margin=\"1\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigners\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/geoff-engelstein\"\u003eGeoff Engelstein\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/mark-herman\"\u003eMark Herman\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/all\/gmt-games\"\u003eGMT Games\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1-4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlaying Time\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60-120 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Age\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13 and up\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr id=\"bgg-row\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Info\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd id=\"bgg-column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"bgg-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e253506\/versailles-1919\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"bgg-forum-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003ehttp:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgame\/253506\/versailles-1919\/forums\/63\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eOn November 11th, 1918 an armistice halted the killing field that was The War to End All Wars. To make peace, Woodrow Wilson (United States), David Lloyd George (United Kingdom), and Vittorio Orlando (Italy), were hosted by President George Clemenceau (France) in Paris, and sat down to write what would become the Versailles Treaty. The treaty was signed on June 28, 2019, after six months of acrimonious debate and bargaining between the great powers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVersailles 1919, created by designers Mark Herman and Geoff Engelstein, allows you to experience this piece of history as one of the four leaders with a national agenda that must be satisfied. As one of the Big Four, you sit in a conference room gaining influence on the issues present in the room. Hovering in the waiting room sit other issues and personages who are waiting their turn to make their case to meet regional aspirations such as self-determination. Will you support Ho Chi Minh’s attempt to free Vietnam from French colonialism? Help Prince Feisal establish a new nation in Mesopotamia or Chaim Weitzman create a Zionist state? Work with TE Lawrence to reduce unrest in the Middle East or with Ataturk in Anatolia?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs France, you are concerned with containing future German aggression while aligning with the British on reparations to pay for the destruction of the war. The British, however would like to see Germany restored as a trading partner while preserving their empire against the global aspiration for self-determination. Italy wants territorial concessions from the former Austro-Hungarian empire. Lurking in the background is the threat of Bolshevism. Towering above it all is President Woodrow Wilson with his 14 points that set global expectations soaring, ultimately ending in disappointment when the US does not join the League of Nations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVersailles 1919 introduces a new card bidding mechanic, where you use your influence to settle issues aligned with your agenda while keeping domestic constituents in support of your actions. You need to balance the need to demobilize your military forces while simultaneously keeping regional unrest under control. All of these decisions are set against the backdrop of regional crises and uprisings. The player who writes more of the treaty prevails in this contest of wills and national agendas. Can you save the world from the rise of nationalism? Can you make a better world while satisfying your domestic electorate?

Their goal was to capture the forts that guarded the Dardanelles. With that achieved, the British and French Fleets would sail to Constantinople, topple the Ottoman government, and open up a supply line to Russia.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHowever, defending the beaches was an equal number of Turkish divisions, hardened in the recent Balkan Wars, led by well-trained Turkish officers, supported by advisors from the German General Staff.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn hour before dawn, in complete silence, the Anzacs rowed ashore at Ari Burnu, a place later to be famous as Anzac Cove. The Royal Navy had landed them in the wrong place! Huge dirt cliffs and scrub-choked washouts confronted them, rather than a beach and low dunes. Nevertheless inland they went, overrunning the Turkish pickets, only to become hopelessly confused by the night landing, jigsaw terrain, and inexperience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSeveral miles inland, a gifted Turkish Officer, Mustafa Kemal, was reviewing his regiment after night maneuvers above Ari Burnu. Kemal's quick and furious counter-attack saved the day for the Ottomans, and set him on the path to become the founder of modern Turkey.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFurther south, at Cape Helles, the Lancashire Fusiliers won six Victoria Crosses - before breakfast - as they ripped through the barbed wire on the beach. The invaders never reached even their first day's objectives, although the Turks only avoided defeat by a hair's breadth. With a different plan, they might have thrown the invaders back into the sea.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGallipoli 1915: Churchill's Greatest Gamble realistically covers the first three days of the campaign, a time of wild maneuver, of decisive attacks parried by the timely arrival of reinforcements, and the onset of trench warfare. Speed - but not reckless haste - is the key to success.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe map covers the entire peninsula from north of Anzac Cove to Cape Helles, based on the 1922 British Ordnance Survey.

Talon is a tactical game of space fleet combat between the Terran Confederation and the invading Talon Empire. It is a quick playing game with simple, but not simplistic rules that innovatively allows you to play large space fleet battles quickly. By keeping all of the information in front of you on the board, it enables you to have lots of choices and interesting decisions without the brain burn.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhy is it named Talon 1000?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe expansion is called Talon 1000 because it adds over 1000 scenarios to the game of Talon. With 4 sheets of expansion counters, most of which have ships printed on both sides, the game comes with ~130 new ships. For comparison, the base game came with a total of 54 ships. Some of the new counters are increased numbers of the current ship types, but many of them are additional ship designs with different weapon load outs and configurations. This gives a wide array of point values which makes scenario balancing easy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 1000 scenarios come from the tables of fleets that are built from all these new counters. Both the Talon and the Terran have 10 unique fleets at the 300 point level, the 400 point level, the 500 point level, etc. All the fleets on each table are within 1 point of the table's total with no special rules or counter changes required. There are 10 of these table of increasing points. To play a random scenario, the players can either choose a point level or roll a 10 sided die to arrive at one. Then they each randomly roll a die on that table to determine their fleet. With 100 different scenarios possible from each table, the 10 tables give the players 1000 unique scenarios.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe over 1000 scenarios part comes from all the additional things included in the expansion - base assaults, terrain, etc.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNew ship types in the expansion:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTerran:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• SCE\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • DDE\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • DDP\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • DDX\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • CLE\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • CLP\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • CLX\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • CAX\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • BCH\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • BCX\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • Starbase\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTalon:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• FFE\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • FFX\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • DDG\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • DDD\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • DDX\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • CLE\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • CLX\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • CAX\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • BCH\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • BCX\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • Starbase\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAll of the counters in Talon 1000 will be coated with improved lamination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eComponents:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • Play Book with over 1000 new scenarios\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • 170 new laminated, double sided, hexagonal ship counters on 5 counter sheets \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • 22 new ship designs\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • 2 Player Aid Cards\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • Impulse Chart\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • Empire War Scenario Card\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e • Ownership of Talon is required to play\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"GMT Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":12881698422835,"sku":"1815","price":34.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic4252498.jpg?v=1578609441"},{"product_id":"commands-colors-medieval","title":"Commands \u0026 Colors: Medieval","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" padding=\"1\" margin=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/richard-borg\"\u003eRichard Borg\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/all\/gmt-games\"\u003eGMT Games\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlaytime\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60-120 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Age\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 and up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAccessory\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/products\/commands-colors-medieval-mounted-mapboard\"\u003eCommands \u0026amp; Colors: Medieval - Mounted Mapboard\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr id=\"bgg-row\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Info\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd id=\"bgg-column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"bgg-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e209003\/commands-colors-medieval\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"bgg-forum-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003ehttp:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgame\/209003\/commands-colors-medieval\/forums\/63\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eGame description from the designer:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCommands \u0026amp; Colors: Medieval is based on the highly successful Commands \u0026amp; Colors game system and by design is not overly complex.

The scale of the game is flexible, and varies from battle to battle. For some scenarios, a unit may represent a Chiliarchy of soldiers, while in other scenarios a unit may represent just a few brave warriors.

The theme of this Battle Pack shifts to actions in France, Belgium and Norway from late April to June 1940, looking at critical moments in this brief span where the forces of both sides tested each other sorely. To reflect this, the scenario special rules are designed to make the Allied Minor hand exhibit flexibility (which was demonstrated whenever higher echelon interference was reduced). CC–Fall of the West features twelve new scenarios printed on cardstock as well as ten new maps.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpecial experimental AFV Rules are featured in four of the scenarios where tanks are facing infantry in settings that reveal how the doctrines, armaments and countermeasures were still early in development. While unfettered races by companies of tanks across the countryside remain a landmark image of the blitzkrieg, we found many instances of a more tentative level of engagement, suitable for our attempt at capturing an unusual element in the CC scope – TANKS!\u003cbr\u003e The new maps depict specific locations in France, Belgium and Norway, which have been located and specifically verified (from the sky, maps and in texts).
