Sherman Leader

About this board game

Sherman Leader is a solitaire World War II strategy game for 1 player, with a listed play time of 60 minutes. You command an American group of tanks, armored cars, trucks, half tracks, and infantry squads across a series of campaigns.

Choose your campaign and take your forces into settings ranging from 1942 North Africa to 1945 Berlin, with everything in between. Each campaign takes about 30 minutes to set up, while individual battles can be resolved in approximately 15 to 30 minutes.

Designed from the ground up as a one-player experience, Sherman Leader lets you play whenever you have time and at your own pace. It is not a multiplayer game with solo rules added afterward; the solitaire format is central to the design.
