Description

Skirmish Wars: Blitz is the first expansion for the lightweight, tactical wargame based on the wildly popular turn-based strategy game series Advance Wars, originally released on the Game Boy Advance by Nintendo. Skirmish Wars is a print-and-play game that uses a modular, customizable map system for endless replayability, and simple mechanics to streamline gameplay.

While the objectives of a given game of Skirmish Wars will vary from scenario to scenario, The classic objective is to win by capturing your enemy's HQ or failing that, by eliminating all of his units. To do so, a player must manage and secure new sources of limited funds, think quickly to out-maneuver, out-produce, or out-gun his opponent, and be ready to counter enemy strategies and units with their own.

Skirmish Wars: Blitz introduces several new units including aircraft (all based on their counterparts from the original Video Game series) and eight new COs. It also introduces new rules for repairing units, rules for units with limited fuel (like air units), and finally a fifth side that may be played.
