France 1944: The Allied Crusade in Europe – Designer Signature Edition
Revamped game covering the historical events that led to the liberation of France, Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands during the Allied drive toward Germany. Players command army-level headquarters, infantry corps, and armored divisions across monthly turns, using supply to activate headquarters and units for operations. After each activation, the opposing side can spend reaction points to reinforce threatened areas or launch counterattacks. The updated edition includes a streamlined combat system, a Falaise Gap introductory scenario, expanded play through May 1945, and a map extending east to Berlin.
