About this expansion

Tide of Iron: Designer Series Vol. 1 is a 2008 scenario collection for 2–4 players, with an advertised play time of 120 minutes. This hardcover volume expands the Tide of Iron base game with twenty new scenarios.

Compiled by conflict historian Dana Lombardy, the collection brings together eighteen notable wargame designers. Its scenarios cover a broad range of engagements, from short skirmishes to epic battles, giving Tide of Iron players a substantial set of new situations to explore.

Several scenarios incorporate elements from the Days of the Fox expansion. This makes the volume a particularly useful addition for players who own that expansion, while its primary role remains expanding the original Tide of Iron experience.

The contributing designers represent a wide range of well-known historical and military game designs. Among them are Michael Bennighof, Richard Berg, Ulrich Blennemann, Vance von Borries, Frank Chadwick, Jack Greene, Don Greenwood, John Hill, Chad Jensen, Jason Matthews, Joseph Miranda, John Prados, Jack Radey, Ted Raicer, Mark Simonitch, and Rick Young, alongside Dana Lombardy.

  • Twenty scenarios for the Tide of Iron base game
  • Engagements ranging from short skirmishes to epic battles
  • Several scenarios featuring elements from Days of the Fox
  • Contributions from eighteen prominent wargame designers

With its combination of varied scenarios and high-profile contributors, Tide of Iron: Designer Series Vol. 1 offers a focused collection for players looking to add more battles to the Tide of Iron system.
