Description
In a vain effort to divert U.S. reinforcements from
reaching the Ardennes Forest, Hitler launched a second attack to the
south of his main effort. Veteran, but understrength, SS units smashed
into inexperienced, but rested, U.S. forces. North Wind contains 10
scenarios depicting this bitter footnote to the Battle of the Bulge.
Panzer Grenadier is an award winning game system that
covers tactical warfare in World War II. Each unit represents a platoon
of infantry, weapons or vehicles. Each hexagon represents 200 meters of
terrain. Each turn represents 15 minutes of time. PG features an
interactive turn system, so a player may not get to do everything he
wants to do before his opponent gets to counter move.
The Panzer Grenadier system is vast, with many modules
available. Each module focuses on a particular theme and provide
counters, maps and scenarios to play. There are two types of modules,
the core games and the supplements. Core games are complete by
themselves, with everything needed to play. Supplements expand on the
core modules, bringing new scenarios and unit types to the game, but
require one or more core module to play.
North Wind is not complete by itself. Ownership of
Airborne, Eastern Front, Road to Berlin, Battle of the Bulge, Red
Warriors and Iron Curtain is required to play.
