Box Description
The Official Game of the 60th Anniversary of the D-Day Landings

From the opening minutes of D-Day to the liberation of Paris and beyond - Memoir '44 airdrops you into the key battles that turned the tide in Western Europe. Omaha Beach, Pegasus Bridge, Ardennes... You'll command your troops in battlefields that defined history in the 20th century.

Memoir '44 is a unique historical game where players face-off in over a dozen WWII battles on an oversize hex game board. Each battle scenario mimics the historical terrain, troop placements and objectives of each army. Deploying forces through a variety of Command and Tactic cards, the smart commander uses the unique skills of his units - infantry, paratroopers, tanks, artillery, commandos and even resistance fighters - to its greatest strength. Easy to learn and fast-paced, Memoir '44 requires strategic card play, timely dice rolling and an aggressive, yet flexible battle plan to achieve victory.
