Players engage in tactical combat in Undaunted: North Africa, leading British or Italian forces through strategic missions in World War II.
In Undaunted: North Africa, players are thrust into the intense conflicts of the North African Campaign during World War II. Taking on the roles of either the British Army's Long Range Desert Group or the Italian forces, players engage in strategic battles that unfold across a variety of missions. This standalone sequel to the acclaimed Undaunted: Normandy allows for a fresh yet familiar experience, where tactical decisions are crucial for success.
As the game progresses, players must adapt to the evolving battlefield dynamics. Casualties will impact the available units, as wounded soldiers are removed from the deck, forcing players to rethink their strategies continually. The game emphasizes resource management and tactical foresight, as players use their cards to bolster their forces, deploy vehicles for rapid movement, and maneuver to gain the upper hand in combat.
Designed for two players aged 14 and up, Undaunted: North Africa offers a playing time of 45 to 60 minutes, making it an engaging choice for strategy enthusiasts. With 88 cards, 22 large map tiles, four dice, and various tokens, this game immerses players in the historical context of the North African Theatre, providing a rich and dynamic gameplay experience that challenges them to seize victory through cunning and tactical prowess.
