The Allies land in Normandy to liberate France from German rule. The liberation however, won’t be an easy road. From D-Day at Omaha Beach, through the battle for Normandy, the Allies will fight the Germans tooth and nail, bayonet and rifle, tank on tank."
Tank on Tank is a new Peter Bogdasarian design. A smaller game that can be learned in less than five minutes and played during a lunch break, Tank on Tank depicts tactical ground combat in Europe in the latter years of World War II.
The scale? It doesn’t really matter in Tank on Tank, let’s just call it tactical.
The units? Tank on Tank includes Shermans, Wolverines, Priests, Tigers, Mark IVs, as well as the infantry and anti-tank guns that fought alongside them.
If you’ve been looking for a simple game to scratch that tactical itch, or something to introduce a young tactician to war gaming, Tank on Tank might be the answer.
Updated with new tanks
I created these counters if you want to do a just a corner of Kursk. I have also created some UK, Canadian and some other German tanks. I have guessed on these stats and went to a friend of mine who is a game publisher (Fantasy Games Unlimited: go buy some classic RPG's), History teacher, and WWII gamer. We think these counters will play nicely with Tank on Tank and not put the game off balance. The Soviet Churchill is an earlier version than what the UK would have been using, hence the difference in the armor stat.
Counters scaled to 5/8th inch and tweaked a few things and added the UK Crusader.
