Memoir '44 is a unique historical game where players command a horde of little plastic Army men facing-off in dozens of World War II battles on an oversized 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 their units - infantry, paratrooper, tank, artillery, and even resistance fighters - to it's greatest strength.
From the cliffs of Pointe-du-Hoc to the hedgerow battles in the Corentin Peninsula and beyond – Memoir '44 airdrops you into the key battles that turned the tide in Western Europe during the summer of 1944. Omaha Beach, Pegasus Bridge, Operation Cobra... Step in and command your troops on the battlefields that defined History in the 20th century!
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.

Memoir '44 - Mediterranean Theater (Expansion)
On the day war broke out, few nations imagined they would soon be forced to conduct land warfare outside of Europe. As a result, when the war reached North Africa, both men and machines were ill-prepared for the harsh demands of a desert campaign. But history is a testament to the caliber of leadership, ingenuity and resolve of those who fought under such harsh conditions. Thanks in part to its long-established presence in far-flung corners of the globe, no army would display these qualities better than the British Commonwealth Forces. (Note: This is not a standalone game; requires the original Memoir '44 game to play.)
