New Mini-Expansion for Memoir '44

Wednesday November 18, 2009

Game publisher Days of Wonder recently announced the upcoming release of a new mini-expansion for Memoir '44 (a World War II game designed by Richard Borg), the Vercors Campaign. The full-color expansion will be given free to customers who purchase any Memoir '44 product (including the base game or any of the existing expansions) from participating retailers or from the Days of Wonder web site.

The Vercors Campaign includes five new scenarios created by Jacques "jdrommel" David, highlighting the Maquisards of the French Resistance and their battle against SS forces on the Vercors Plateau in the summer of 1944. As with all Memoir '44 campaigns, victory is earned by winning multiple battles with the outcome of each scenario determining the circumstances of the next.

The Vercors Campaign will be available starting in December. Players will need a copy of the Memoir '44 base game, the Terrain Pack expansion (for some scenarios) and the Campaign Book: Volume 1 (for the campaign rules). The Air Pack expansion is recommended, but not required.
