Blitzkrieg!

Enter World War II: Play as the Allied Coalition or the Axis Powers and compete for control of major theaters of operation! Face many decisive choices! Draw Unit tokens from your bag to determine your strength and compensate for your losses. A good understanding of the battlefield will allow you to allocate your military resources to the best positions for the campaigns of each decisive battle, ensuring victory.

The board represents five different Theaters of Operations: each Theater of Operations is made up of Campaigns, represented by a row of Combat spaces. The Combat spaces can be of the Land type (they can only be occupied by Land or Air Forces), Sea (they can only be occupied by Naval or Air Forces), or Land / Sea (and can be occupied by Land, Naval or Air Forces).

Each player chooses his side: either the Axis coalition or the Allied coalition. Everyone starts the game with a reserve of Unit tokens in their bag and draws three. In turn, the player places a Unit token on a Free Combat space and applies the effect to that space. The Theater of Operation Confrontation marker in question is moved according to the value of the Unit token played, before drawing a new Unit token.

A Campaign is closed as soon as a player places a Unit token on the last free Combat space in a row. After moving the Clash marker the number of spaces equal to the strength of the Unit token, check which side is the Clash marker on to score Victory Points. The game ends when a player scores 25 Victory Points or cannot place any of their Unit tokens.
