It's the summer of 1944 and Allied forces fight to liberate occupied France from Germany. It's a titanic struggle that pits the advanced weaponry of the German Army against the airpower, artillery and ever-improving soldiers of the Allies. Welcome to Nations at War!
White Star Rising introduces LNL Publishing's Nations at War (NAW) game system. Based on the popular World at War tactical system, NAW depicts platoon level combat in World War II. In NAW you'll find everything you're looking for in a platoon level game: armor, artillery, infantry serving as more than cannon fodder, command and control, air support, and desperate close assaults that leave the victor in possession of the ground and the defeated in headlong retreat. All included in an easy to learn and challenging to master game system. White Star Rising, which focuses on the fighting between the Americans, their British allies and Germans, includes three counter sheets complete with vehicles, soldiers and weapons of the armies that fought in France, Belgium and Germany in 1944-45. You'll fight battles at Omaha Beach, in the Lorraine, on the outskirts of Belgium, and in Germany itself. There are sixteen scenarios played out on four 11" x 17" geomorphic maps with large .75" and .625" counters.
