Description

[Edit] [History]

Rommel was designed by Dan Verssen and is the first game in our new "Field Commander" solitaire series of historical strategy board games. You get to take command of General Erwin Rommel's forces in 3 exciting WWII campaigns: France 1940, North Africa 1941, and D-Day 1944. An easy to use game system manages the Allied movement, combat, and reinforcements.

The counters will be beautifully printed and die cut with full color on both sides. The current idea for the box size is 9" x 12" x 1.5". I hope to have Cartamundi do all the printing and production work. They are a great company to work with and have a lot of experience printing games.

As your units win battles, their stats will increase.

Each campaign comes with a list of historical options. You can select any of these options to modify the campaign, and its difficulty level. This allows each campaign to be replayed many times and never be the same twice.

The game comes with "Career" rules that allow you to link the campaigns. The outcome of one campaign affects your start-up conditions for the next campaign.

1 set up aid chart
FcRoaid.pdf
In the game there are 3 scenarios. Some units are used in more than one scenario: you have to choose the right units and battle plans for each one. To make set up faster I prepared the enclosed aid chart with: Campaigns that share counters Battle plan used in each campaign. Furthermore, to speed up choice of German battlepan, I also included: Costs of German Battleplan
