Urban Operations társasjáték

Az Urban Operations egy összetett társasjáték, 1 - 6 játékos részére, az átlagos játékidő hosszú, akár 1.5 - 5 óra is lehet. A társast, a bonyolultsága miatt, csak 14 éves kortól ajánljuk kipróbálni. A játékmenet erősen épít a moduláris tábla, a visszatartott információ, a hatszög-rács, a szimuláció és a kockadobás mechanizmusokra.

Realistic modern urban tactical combat, across a range of settings
Urban Operations: Second Edition is a game that simulates modern tactical combat in a range of historical and hypothetical urban settings. It uses unique mechanics for chain of command, logistical support, collateral damage and close-quarters combat resolution. Blocks for units and concealed (face-down) elements of the board capture the fog of war.

The game was initially developed as a training tool for France's National Centre of Excellence for Urban Warfare Training. It will appeal to anyone interested in learning and applying modern urban combat fighting techniques, and re-creating the action from the 16 scenarios in the game, including:

• Mogadishu (1993) - six scenarios of Western units battling Somali militia
• Fulda (1985) - six scenarios of a hypothetical WW3 battle between Soviet and NATO forces
• Other single scenario settings including USMC in Fallujah (2004), the British in Basra (2003), and the Russians in Groszy (1999)

The Second Edition has the following changes:

• New player aids
• Clarification of key rules and all errata incorporated into
• a new rulebook
• Updates to boards and maps to improve 3D effects and ease of line of sight assessments
• New advanced rules for Combined Combat actions
• Various other minor improvements to playability
