Tide of Iron: Normandy

About this expansion

Tide of Iron: Normandy is a 2008 expansion for 2–4 players that recreates Allied beach landings against fortified German defenses, with games lasting approximately 240 minutes.

The action begins on the beaches, where Allied forces face German fortifications, then moves inland into the bocage. Dense hedgerows create the setting for further fighting across the countryside, extending the conflict beyond the initial landing.

This expansion includes eight new scenarios, including four linked campaign scenarios. Together, they provide a connected set of battles centered on the landings and the push beyond the beaches.

• Eight new scenarios, including four linked campaign scenarios
• More than 100 new cards, including Weather and Leadership decks
• New terrain, including beaches and bunkers
• New armored fighting vehicles for both sides

The new vehicle lineup includes the American M-10, as well as the German StuGIII, Jagdpanzer IV, King Tiger, and Panther. These additions expand the forces and battlefield features available for the Normandy scenarios.

With its beach terrain, bunkers, weather and leadership cards, and linked campaign scenarios, Tide of Iron: Normandy focuses on the transition from fortified coastal defenses to combat among the hedgerows. It offers a substantial expansion for players who want to recreate these Allied landings and the battles that follow.
