Fortress Europa, Designer Signature Edition, marks the return of a true wargaming classic by John Edwards, faithfully remastered and updated with this all-new, supersized edition. Celebrated by many as the successor to The Russian Campaign, this two-player game recreates the Allied campaign in Western Europe from D-Day to March 1945. This edition of Fortress Europa features a supersized map and counters and is yet another Classic reborn by Compass.

For over two years, the Allies have been gathering their forces in England, preparing the final plan and its execution. The Allied Strategic Air Forces relentlessly strike at railroads, road networks, bridges, and industrial complexes in Germany, France, Belgium, and Holland, attempting to soften up the German defence and slow German production. The target is Hitlers Fortress Europa.

Fortress Europa recreates this epic struggle during the Allied campaign in Western Europe from D-Day to March 1945. The Allied player must select an invasion site and make a successful landing, breakout of the beachhead, drive across France, and push deep into Germany. The German player must prevent the Allied invasion or else conduct an orderly withdrawal across France, constantly delaying the Allies, and then counter-attacking in the winter.

This Designer Signature Edition of the classic John Edwards game represents a significant upgrade over previous editions to maximize your gaming enjoyment. This edition includes supersized components including a larger game map and 5/8" counters. Key enhancements include more than ten years of official Q&A and clarification incorporated into the rules, clear and succinct invasion sequence chart, expanded optional rules, revised and balanced scenarios, and insightful developer's notes.

• Two Maps (43" x 34")
• Three Countersheets
