Product Details
Hitler's Reich is the first of the Card Conquest System game series in which players recreate epic military contests of history in short, comparatively simple and easy to learn, but hard to master games. Designed to be set up in minutes and played to conclusion in one sitting, these are not simulations but games, albeit ones packed with enough historical flavor, excitement, and decision making to give you the feeling of being there at the highest levels of command.
In Hitler's Reich, one side is the Axis of Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, and their East European minions. The other is the Allies of the United States, Great Britain and the Commonwealth, along with the Soviet Union. It is April of 1941 and Hitler, already master of Europe and much of the Mediterranean, is poised to launch his great march East - Operation Barbarossa: the invasion of Soviet Russia.
As the Allied high command, will you succeed in throwing back this onslaught and eventually liberate Europe via a Soviet counter-offensive and Operation Overlord's amphibious invasion of France? Or as the Axis leadership, will you triumph over all and create the thousand-year empire that would have been Hitler's Reich.
Although Hitler's Reich is designed for two players, a three- and four-player variant is included for multi-player and team play as well as an intriguing solitaire game.
