Combat Commander: Europe/Med. – 20th Anniversary Edition EN

An example of some of the 35 different Events are:

Players attempt to achieve victory by moving their combat units across the game map to attack their opponent’s combat units and occupy as many objectives as possible. The degree to which a player succeeds or fails is measured by a scenario’s specific Objective chits, the destruction of enemy units, and the exiting of friendly units off the opponent’s board edge. Command & Control is extremely important inCombat Commander, being modeled via the “Command” number on Leader units. Command serves both to enhance the abilities of Squads and Teams stacked with the Leader, as well as allowing for multiple activations with a single Order.

Combat Commanderincludes twelve historical scenarios as well as a “roll your own” scenario system that provides an almost unending variety of map configurations, combat situations, and historically-based force structures. Each scenario is played on one of twelve maps, each with a 10×15 hexgrid depicting various terrain at a scale of approximately 100 feet per hex.

Replayability forCombat Commanderis high. And with Chad’s brilliant Random Scenario Generator, it provides unlimited possibilities as far as additional scenarios, maps, units, weapons, and gaming situations are concerned. Add to that a TON of additional content. Over the past decade, we have released sequels and expansions covering the British, French, Italians, the Pacific Theater, the Resistance, even a „what if” expansion on Operation Sea Lion. Because of all of this content and unlimited scenario creation options,Combat Commanderis even more than a wonderfully immersive gaming experience. It is also one of those rare exceptional values in wargaming: one featuring so much content and diversity that it can be revisited time and time again, with each game holding a new tale to tell.
