1-COM1088

Decision at Kasserine: Rommel's Last Chance, Designer Signature Edition, marks the return of a true wargaming classic by Vance von Borries first published in 1983, faithfully remastered and updated with this all-new, supersized edition. Hailed by many as of the premier entry in the popular Battles for North Africa series, this two-player operational level simulation covers the WWII German and Italian offensive in central Tunisia which took place in mid-February 1943.

This edition of Decision at Kasserine features a super-sized map and counters and is another Classic Reborn! by Compass.

This Designer Signature edition of the classic Vance von Borries game goes beyond a mere culmination of the
forward strides made with subsequent games published in the series;
it now features a major update to the game system that will be implemented in future game releases of the popular Battles for North Africa series.
In terms of superior physical presentation, all aspects have been upgraded, including super-sized components; larger game map and 5/8' counters.

Supporting charts convey more information at a glance for ease of play
Enhanced ergonomics are built into the set up and reinforcement charts
Updated the Order of Battle based on new information and analysis
