Description

AMFREVILLE, NORMANDY, 6 June 1944: After a night of uncertainty and confusion, dawn was a time for the German force based in Amfreville to assess their situation. Little enough was known for certain. Although Divisional headquarters was only a few kilometers down the road, all lines had been cut, and the roads were not safe for messengers. Rumors were spreading that the Allies had employed a totally new tactic, dropping paratroops in a depth and on a scale hitherto unheard of in warfare. Amid all the uncertainty, the Germans’ duty was clear. The first priority was to secure the Merderet river crossings. While skirmish lines swept the fields around Amfreville of American stragglers, an armored column formed up to take the Merderet River bridge at La Fiere.

The era of GIANT HEX gaming is here - and is long overdue. Back in the day guys would spend big bucks to blow up a map here and there, usually proudly displayed. The result was an expensive, albeit unparalleled gaming experience that does more than just avoid most if not all stacking - it provides a sweeping, yet granular battlefield experience that makes things DELUXE ... and larger, but not just on small-area geo-boards, but instead unique historical battlefields.

You will need to own the ASLRB and modules providing Americans and Germans.
