"1759: Siege of Quebec (Second Edition)" is the remake of the first wargame of the "Worthington's Great Sieges" game series. These wargames highlight command decisions for players against a solitaire game engine opponent. They have been designed for easy set up and quick game play. Game unit placement is shown on the game board and units are wooden markers representing troop and ship formations. The game was developed for solitaire play and players can play as either the French or the British against the solitaire player game engine. There is also a two player version of the game. Both sides require you to make great decisions based on good strategy, keep your wits about you when orders do not turn out well, and press on to victory.

Any time one side's morale reaches zero during a turn, the other side wins the game.
Also, the French win if they hold out until the British Navy departs.
And the British can win by taking Quebec.

Highlights of 1759: Siege of Quebec (2nd Edition):

New art style to the game board and cards
New rules and game pieces for artillery
New white French/red British/brown Indian pieces

STRUGGLE FOR EUROPE 1939-1945 is a fast-paced, light, two-player, card-driven strategy wargame set in Europe during World War II that allows you to re-fight the entire struggle for Europe at a strategic level in under two hours.

The game starts in 1939 with the Axis player poised to expand rapidly against the Allies (the Polish, French, and British).

Which way to go and who to attack are the early decisions. Can they capture enough to win the game before the first reshuffle.
Game play uses point-to-point movement and area control, hidden army strengths, and decks of cards providing the command choices; there are no dice. The Axis and Allied players each have their own card decks, reflecting the relative strengths and weaknesses of both sides. Each player will have the chance to be the aggressor and defender trying to win the game by the time they have cycled through their card deck for the last time. Victory is achieved by having accumulated the required amount of victory points by capturing victory locations.

As the decks are cycled, the Allied player adds some better quality cards, with the Russians and Americans entering play during the 1st and 2nd reshuffle. The Axis player adds will burn through his early game quality cards, becoming weaker as his resources dwindle. The underlying game mechanism is one of "deck destruction" rather than the more normal deck-building.

Cards have multiple uses and can be recycled if used one way but during the course of the game you have to decide which cards are going to be permanently sacrificed from your deck cycle to allow you to build units.

TARAWA 1943 is a solitaire, card driven game on the invasion of Japanese controlled Tarawa by the 2nd Marine Division. Each turn the USMC player will activate one of his battalions (there are 8 in the game). During it's activation it can move, attack, and attempt to regroup. The USMC player further has a 3 card hand (out of a deck of 30 cards) that gives additional resources to the player (naval support, air support, engineers, tanks, etc). The USMC player can play 1 card during their turn and 1 card during the Japanese turn.

As a battalion is activated it reduces its cohesion (reflecting wear and tear, exhaustion). Battalions are further reduced in cohesion due to Japanese attacks and the marines "pushing their attacks".

After the USMC player finishes their activation, the Japanese turn begins with the flip of a card. From this the USMC player will face fire attacks, banzai attacks, bunkers, cross fires, infiltration, and more. The card engine will ensure an ever changing game and no two will play the same.

The game will give the historical starting invasion site, however, we have included the alternate "south beach" landing possibility, that the Japanese had expected and prepared.
Victory is achieved by taking the island as quickly as possible while minimizing casualties. This was the first invasion of the US island hopping strategy and high losses or a prolonged fight could have led to a cancellation of the island hopping campaign.

It is the summer of 1814, and the British Navy controls the Chesapeake Bay. With that navy is a small professional army, fresh from the battlefields of Europe and Napoleonic warfare, ready to land on the shores along the bay and bring this war to an end. Their targets are Norfolk, Washington and Baltimore, the heart of American ship building and maritime industry. Standing in their way is a large disorganized militia and a handful of marines. The historical campaign resulted in Washington being burned, but now the decisions are yours...

The "War of 1812 Campaigns" uses the game system from Worthington's "Blue and Gray" series adapted to this era. "War Along the Chesapeake" is Volume 1 and will be followed by Volume 2: War Along the Great Lakes and Volume 3: War Along the Gulf Coast.

Volume II in the War of 1812 Game Series follows up the successful limited edition of War Along the Chesapeake (Volume I).

War Along the Gulf Coast allows gamers to refight Andrew Jackson's campaign against British General Pakenham's British invaders. The game uses the proven Blue & Gray combat system where morale is as important as the number of soldiers.

You are limited in how many units you may move based on the number of action points you receive, plus a random number of action points based on your commander, and play an Event Card, not necessarily in that order. This means no two games will play alike. Movement is location to location. When the two armies end a move in the same location a battle occurs and the action moves to the battle board.

War Along the Great Lakes is Volume III in Worthington Games War of 1812 series.

The game uses blocks and point to point movement to recreate the fighting along the Great Lakes during the War of 1812 between the United States and Great Britain. A British loss in the Great Lakes could have easily meant Canada would be part of the United States today.

During each turn each player receives action points plus random action points to activate his units for movement and combat. During combat each unit rolls dice and scores hits on opponent units. Careful planning is required not to get trapped.

Victory is determined by occupation of key terrain features and elimination of enemy units.

Due to the randomness of the action points no two games play the same. For this reason the game plays great solitaire (no solo engine - but by playing both sides).

Philadelphia 1777 is a war game about the American Revolutionary War campaign led by British General Howe against the American colonist led by General Washington. It is a point to point movement war game using blocks with labels for the military units. The game uses the system from our previous games, New York 1776, Trenton 1776, and Saratoga 1777.

Each turn both the American and British player will receive activation points with which to activate either groups of blocks moved by a leader, or individual blocks. When blocks of both sides end a move in a location together then a battle occurs.

The game has some excellent historical “chrome” mixed in.

There are lots of great strategic decisions for both sides in the game. Best of all it plays in 2 hours so you have time to play two games in an evening.

NAPOLEON RETURNS 1815 is our first game using our action point/battle card system. We've combined several ideas into one fast playing game of Napoleon's 1815 Waterloo Campaign.

With fewer than 20 pieces on the board, strategic movement based on action point allocation, a unique twist on a classic battle card system, the game plays in under 90 minutes. The game is playable by 2 to 3 players and several games can be played in an evening. Great for Tournament play!
Each side receives a set number of action points to move pieces and battle. Each piece on the board is a corps in the French, Anglo-Allied, and Prussian armies, so each side has 4 - 8 pieces on board. As your pieces move they will gain fatigue, and as they battle they gain fatigue and casualties.

The battle system is card play, matching the cards played based on the type of units in the corps (infantry, cavalry, or artillery). Victory is determined by the capture of terrain and eliminating enemy units.

From the publisher:

Hold the Line, The American Revolution is an innovative collaboration between Worthington Publishing and The Plastic Soldier Company/PSC Games to reproduce and remaster some of Worthington Games original titles. Combining Clash for a Continent, the original Hold the Line, plus new original scenarios into one comprehensive Revolutionary War game, Hold the Line, The American Revolution will take players from the towns of Lexington and Concord to the shores of Yorktown. Using 200 beautifully sculpted 20mm (1/72nd scale) miniature figures moulded in robust semi-hard plastic, off the sprue and ready to play from the box (apart from putting the wheels on the cannons!) representing American and British Infantry, Dragoons, Leaders, Flag Bearers, Artillery and Militia; players will be able to refight over 18 battles of the American Revolution with a stretch goal adding 13 more.

The game includes 200 custom plastic figures in seven different unique sculpts. Each player will command 44 Infantry, 20 Militia, 20 Flag Bearers, 8 Artillery, 6 Dragoons, and 2 Leaders. British and American Infantry each have distinctly different sculpts to enhance your experience within the game. These are very large 22mm or larger game pieces. They have been designed to have large stable bases for game play. All figures arrive individual and bagged. There are no plastic trees and sprues.

HoldFast Pacific has the empire of Japan attempt to control the vast Pacific Ocean. After devastating the United States fleet at Pearl Harbor, the Japanese naval, air and land forces push their conquest across the Pacific. Their only obstacles are weakened Allied forces and time as the Allies recover. Can you as the Japanese player secure a Pacific empire that protects your homeland from your enemies? And as the Allied player can you rebuild your armed forces and mount a counter attack that prevents the Japanese expansion and bring the war to their homeland?

HoldFast Atlantic recreates the ship battles contesting control of the Atlantic Ocean during World War II. The navies of Britain and the United States are challenged to keep sea lanes open for its convoys. German U-Boats prowl these waters and German and Italian battleships and cruisers threaten the sea supply lines of the Allies. The great Axis warships Bismarck, Tirpitz and others contest Britain's best while the United States fleet adds its might to the fight as the war progresses. As the Axis player can you cut the sea lanes that supply Great Britain and Russia to win the war? Or as the Allied player, can you overcome the U-Boat menace and Axis naval and air forces to control the Atlantic.

“When Barbarossa commences, the world will hold its breath and make no comment.” – Adolf Hitler.

Now you get the chance to refight the greatest campaign in history as you direct the armies of Germany and Russia from 1941 to the bitter end of World War II. Using blocks with labels as the military units you will maneuver your forces to best destroy those of the enemy.
As the German player you must push rapidly east trying to capture the key cities of Leningrad, Moscow and Stalingrad, not only fighting the Russian army but the winter as well. And as the Russian player you must withstand the German sledgehammer attacks as you trade ground for time, marshalling your forces for the counterattack that will drive the enemy backwards.

Russia ended up winning but history did not have to end like this, can you do better?

HOLDFAST EASTFRONT 1941 – 1945 will come with a large hard mounted game map.

From the manufacturers Kickstarter campaign description:

In 2012 we printed the first game under Worthington Publishing. It was Volume I in the World War II Campaign Series, HOLDFAST RUSSIA 1941-1942. We sold out of HOLDFAST RUSSIA 1941-42 last year and have had calls for a reprint ever since. Well rather than just reprint we decided to remaster the game with a larger hard mounted game board and expand the game to cover the entire war in the east.

We are now printing it as a new game, Volume V in the World War II Campaign Series, HOLDFAST: EASTFRONT 1941-1945. The game has been extended to 1945. The board has been expanded to push out to Berlin.

New units that appear later in the war are included such as Russian Air, and SS units.

The remastered edition will include the original game that ends in 1942 and a game that covers the whole war; To Moscow and Back 1941-1945. It also has 3 additional scenarios:

1. Fall Blau and beyond 1942-1945
2. Kursk 1943-1945
3. The destruction of Army Group Center 1944-1945.

Holdfast North Africa 1941-1942 is the follow up to the highly popular Holdfast Russia 1940-1941 and Holdfast Korea 1950-51. The game uses simple mechanics with a highly interactive turn sequence that keeps gamers engaged for a fast, fun, and furious 2 to 2.5 hours of play. The game units are blocks with labels and a low unit density on board means the game does not bog down. The core rules are 4 pages expanded to 8 with detailed graphics and explanations meaning you can be up and playing with 15 minutes of rules reading and a short set up.
