The African Campaign: Designer Signature Edition
Simulate the Desert War in World War II from Operation Compass in December 1940 through the American landings in December 1942. This two-player wargame covers the shifting offensives of the North African Campaign, with rules for supply, ports, replacements, fuel, strategic movement, air power, flak, minefields, and more. Low counter density keeps play moving while representing the campaign’s wide-ranging desert operations. This edition includes updated components, known errata, optional rules, variants, a larger playing surface, and 5/8-inch counters.
