Assault the Beaches of D-Day and Beyond!

Frontline is a tactical WWII ground combat card game for 1 to 4 players. The game covers small unit action during the D-Day beach assaults and the steady stream of conflicts as the Allied troops advanced toward Germany.

Each player commands a squad of 5 to 12 British, American, or German soldiers and vehicles. Each card represents one soldier or vehicle. Each unit has inherent actions each turn including moving and attacking with different modes of fire. An action card deck enhances basic actions, and provides units with spur of the moment options.

The game uses counters to illustrate vital game information such as wounds, range, ammo, command, and morale. The range system is easy to use and simulates the movement of forces on the battlefield.

Frontline can also be played solitaire using the enemy Tactic cards. These cards give general, specific, and conditional orders to the enemy troops based on the current battlefield situation.

You can create battles by purchasing your starting forces, playing pre-made scenarios, or using the balanced randomized engagement rules.

38 Frontline D-Day rules in 2 pages
A pet project of mine ever since receiving the game: collating the manual's separate pieces of information into a coordinated presentation where "all you need to know" is in one place, and not scattered across 36 pages. I also attempted to use a bit less jargon, while still making it clear what to do and when.This is v1.2, because v1.1 suffered from some PDF output issues. This set of rules is for the 2-player game, not solitaire. Let me know what you think. Acknowledgments: Thanks to Dan Verssen [for the game!] and Brad Ames [for his condensed rules]. Both helped make this possible.

4 More Vehicles for Frontline D-Day
More Vehicles for Frontline D-Day. You will notice the unarmoured defence on the BMW and the M10 as they are both able to be shot at by infantry weapons. The M10 is open topped and not fully enclosed to protect the crew.

4 Armour for Frontline
Some more armour for frontline. I know it's a little rough, but adds a little more to the game. I use scale models to recreate the action, so the cards I've made are for what I have available. Hope you like it
