Description

Lock ’n Load Tactical Compendium. Volume 1 is the WW2-Era edition, and it collates, in a re-edited and updated format, all of the essential WW2-Era LnLT articles, maps and scenarios from every issue of Line of Fire magazine, plus some new content, including four new scenarios.

In the Compendium Volume 1, you can read indispensable articles on infantry and tank tactics—it’s like attending advanced combat training in 10 pages! Learn how to best place obstacles when you are on the defensive, and how to tackle the difficulties of the Fog in Noville, Bastogne’s Outpost. Read about the history and tactics of the battles for Kellam’s Bridge and the Norman village of Cauquigny and then play the two scenarios. Detailed descriptions of the Japanese forces in Heroes of the Pacific and the British forces in Heroes of Normandy also provide background and tactical insights on how to use them. Plus, fiction from the East Front and a history of the US Armored Divisions.

Scenarios comprise the bulk of this Compendium, and more scenarios equal more gameplay for your existing games. From the desperate moments of the Blitzkrieg in 1940 to North Africa in 1942 to Normandy in 1944 and across France to Holland and into the Hürtgen Forest of Germany, in four new scenarios played on redesigned maps. With over 110 pages, 22 scenarios and six maps, this Compendium has something for everyone who’s a fan of the Lock ’n Load Tactical series’ WW2-Era games. And it’s all right here: One game system, one era, one place!
