Directly adapted from the boardgame Winner of the Origins Award in the Best Historical Board Game category on June 2015, the digital version of Heroes of Normandie receives a major free update with the addition of a new brand feature: the action cards!
Developer Cat Rabbit has been focused on faithfully reproducing the core mechanics of the original version: fast-paced turns, a clear set of rules and a wide range of units with specific weapons and abilities.
The new Action Cards significantly improve the gameplay and add a new layer of depth to the game. There are 29 new cards for Germany and 32 for the US, all of them tested and balanced through months of beta testing. They are accompanied by a patch including many bug-fixes, balance changes and five new multiplayer missions.
Heroes of Normandie brings players in a colorful, digital boardgame experience, characterized by all the crazy characters from the three different armies (USA, Germany and The Commonwealth). 6 campaigns, a skirmish mode, 2 Rogue-like campaigns and a multiplayer mode where players can select pre-set forces or assemble their own army.
