March 23rd - via: kickstarter.com
ArtworkWe really spent a lot of time on the concept for the artwork. Originally, we went with a more traditional, sharper line style. But as we had more play tests and looked around we realized that all the other cards games had the line drawing... (Read More)

If you are into World War II infantry tactics (and who isn’t?) you will recognize the importance of the machine gun and mortar. We have tried to reflect their importance with the suppression ability and until you master it you will not get far.... (Read More)
One Man
March 17th - via: kickstarter.com
I have been asked if each card represents one man or is representative of a squad, stick, or more. I have come to the conclusion that the answer is yes. While certain objectives were taken by larger groups, on occasion one man made the difference. A... (Read More)

Lt. Colonel Robert Cole

V is for Victory
March 10th - via: kickstarter.com
I was really struck by the stories of sacrifice and heroism that occurred on D-Day reading through the awards and commendations. It is a travesty that each division was limited to only 1 Medal of Honors for action on that day. When looking at... (Read More)

A Solo Game
March 6th - via: kickstarter.com
A Solo Game Part of the problem with game design is creating balance for players. If the game creates too much of a feedback loop it is easy to have a runaway leader which the other players can’t catch up. Unfortunately real life is full of... (Read More)
Organized Chaos
March 6th - via: kickstarter.com
What really attracted me to building a deck building game to represent the airborne mission at Normandy was two things. First is the building part. Each paratrooper dropped alone through the dark. Gathering dispersed troopers together is critical to... (Read More)
