| In
the early morning hours of 6 June 1944, American
paratroopers landed in Normandy, heralding
the Allied return to Europe and the eventual
destruction of the Nazi regime. Fierce battles
broke out as they fought to secure bridges
and roads, and eliminate German resistance.
Airborne is a game based on these
intense firefights, with 20 separate scenarios,
or game situations, based on the actual battles
waged in Normandy during and after the American
landings. The game is our gateway to the
Panzer
Grenadier game series, portraying
the leaders, infantry and tank platoons and
artillery batteries deployed during the campaign.
It’s a total revision of the game we
first released in 2001; you can read about
the changes here.
Airborne has 165 playing pieces representing
the troops and weapons of the U.S. Army and
the German Wehrmacht of 1944. There’s
one map, representing the typical terrain
found in the hedgerows and marshes of Normandy.
The scenarios are chosen for quick play and
intense fun, to introduce you to the more
than 500 published scenarios of the series.
