📖 About This Game
Armour Battles is an introductory set of World War Two miniatures wargame rules. Based on the larger Combat HQ rules, Armour Battles is a fully playable game.
Armour Battles features three armoured battles set in Lorraine, France in 1944 as Patton’s 3rd Army advances towards the Rhine. The first battle is a small meeting engagement between US and German tanks. The next battle has the Americans attacking the Germans. This is followed by the Americans attempting to break through the German positions as the Germans counter-attack with a Tiger I platoon.
