Fierce battles broke out as they fought to secure bridges and roads, and eliminate German resistance. Airborne is a game based on these intense firefights, with 20 separate scenarios, or game situations, based on the actual battles waged in Normandy during and after the American landings. The game is our gateway to the Panzer Grenadier game series, portraying the leaders, infantry and tank platoons and artillery batteries deployed during the campaign. It’s a total revision of the game we first released in 2001. Airborne has 165 playing pieces representing the troops and weapons of the U.S. Army and the German Wehrmacht of 1944.

The scenarios are chosen for quick play and intense fun, to introduce you to the more than 500 published scenarios of the series. Buy Airborne Introductory Edition Game |
