LA BATAILLE DE FRANCE 1940: Wargame

LA BATAILLE DE FRANCE 1940: Wargame
by Cebrian, Jaun Carlos

1-COM1025

In May, 1940, the German Army invaded France through the neutral countries of Belgium and Netherlands to avoid the fearsome Maginot Line. Against all expectations, the neutral nations were quickly overrun, and the British Expeditionary Corps was forced to be evacuated, almost miraculously, from the channel port of Dunkirk. France capitulated in two months.

This game recreates those events and allows players to reproduce, at a tactical level, the most famous battles of the Blitzkrieg. Based on the A las Barricadas game system, with new rules added to simulate to this historical period, France 1940 promises many enjoyable hours of fierce game play involving infantry, tanks, artillery, and aircraft from all the armies that took part in this campaign.
