Memoir ’44 – Winter Wars

Memoir '44 is a war game, designed to commemorate the efforts of the men and women who fought in the Second World War. The game makes use of the Commands & Colors (C&C) game system designed by Richard Borg.

The system is recognisable for utilising battle dice and a shared deck of command cards. The battle dice enable combat to be resolved efficiently. The command cards form the game engine, driving movement and providing orders for Units. They also serve to create a fog of war effect which add to the realism. Games utilising the C&C system also have a game board that is a hex grid. This grid is divided into three sections: Left flank, Centre, and Right flank.

The Winter Wars expansion provides players with ten new scenarios focused on the Ardennes over the Christmas period of 1944. This pack includes:
- 88 double-sided winter tiles, and various special unit badges, round markers and obstacles.
- 20 winter combat cards
- 80 new command cards

New rules for winter combat are also included, along with rules for new units, including Tank Destroyer and Heavy Anti-Tank units.

Please note, a copy of the Memoir '44 base game is required in order to play with this expansion. Copies of the Eastern Front and Breakthrough expansions are also required, to play the final four scenarios in this expansion. The final four scenarios are large scale, breakthrough renditions of the Battle of the Bulge.
