Armored Warfare in the Burning Sands

Nothing in the desert is close. You see the dust before you see the tanks, and you have to decide what to do about it while they are still a long way out.

You take a formation and put it somewhere it can hurt something.

Italians, Germans and Vichy French on one side. British and Commonwealth troops, Americans and Free French on the other. Panzer IIIs and IVs with Tigers when they arrive, Crusaders and Matildas, Shermans and Italian M13/40s. Eighty-eights sited where they can see a very long way, and 25-pounders answering them. Stukas, Hurricanes, P-40s and Macchis overhead, and Bersaglieri and Fallschirmjäger on the ground.

You Never Know Who Moves Next

Your forces are activated by a formation deck, so nobody at the table knows how a turn is going to play out until the cards start turning over.

Nations At War: Desert Heat 2nd Edition Companion book covers all the module rules, scenarios and important player aids. The Companion book can be used along with our board game edition or for virtual gaming online.

Daniel A. ★★★★★

I was a little worried about the complexity of the armored warfare rules, but the included scenario book does a fantastic job walking you through the dust and distance mechanics step by step. It really brings the tension of spotting tanks on the horizon to life.

Ava ★★★★★

The rulebook's layout makes it way easier to reference the spotting rules mid-game. The new scenario cards for the desert terrain really change how you plan your advance.

Isabella P. ★★★★★

The 2nd edition cleaned up the spotting rules so armor engagements finally feel tense instead of fiddly. Played a full scenario last night and the revised desert terrain charts made every advance a real gamble.
