Napoleon at War Deluxe Edition reprints the original SPI QuadriGame consisting of four separate battles, each among the important of the Napoleonic Wars: Marengo, Jena-Auerstadt, Wagram, and the Battle of Nations at Leipzig. This new deluxe edition has a full-color instruction booklet, new counter and map artwork, with 9/16” counters, two back printed 22” x 25.5” mounted game boards, and new player aid cards. The basic rules to all four games in the Napoleon at War series are standardized. Each game has its own exclusive rules, which include historical set up and reinforcements, special rules, player’s notes, and commentary by the game’s designer.

The game mechanics used in this series are based on the popular Borodino-Napoleon at Waterloo game system. The scale of each game ranges from 400 to 800 meters per hex, while each game turn represents between one and two hours of real time. Units range in size from demi-brigades through divisions, with each strength point representing between 250 and 350 men or an equivalent amount of artillery.

Movement is sequential and single-phased. Zones of control are rigid, and combat is mandatory between adjacent opposing units. Stacking is limited to one unit per hex. The Combat Results Table is relatively uncertain, with odds of 4 to 1, or better, necessary to ensure at least a “Defender Retreat” result. Terrain ranges from the Austrian parade grounds south of Wagram to the rough and forested battlegrounds of Jena-Auerstadt. Game length varies from the five-turn First Day Scenario of the Battle of Nations to the 20 game turn Grand Battle Scenario of that same game which simulates the entire three- and one-half-day Battle of Leipzig, the largest battle of the Napoleonic Wars.

The games, though graphically enhanced from the originals, remain the same. Now enhance your enjoyment with this new deluxe edition of another SPI classic!

Battles in the East (BITE) is a series simulating World War II Eastern Front battles. The system rules are an evolution of the SPI classics Panzergruppe Guderian, Army Group South, and Cobra. Unit integrity bonuses include Soviet Corps and vary to show the increasing Soviet cohesion and decreasing German cohesion as the war progresses. HQ units provide higher level combat support and supply advantages to corresponding units in range. BITE also incorporates standardized scales (unit size, distance, time) for easy comparisons. While the series rules allow players to play many games with the same core rules, the scenario rules add unique situational elements of each battle. Each volume includes two battles from one year with two copies of the charts and tables as well as scenario rules and set-up cards for easy reference.

Drive to the Sea
West Prussia, January 1945: Stalin’s agenda focused on the conquest of Prussia, the first German territory reached by the advancing Red Army. The German Army, ahead of a total collapse, prepared a ‘defense in depth’ while deploying many Prussian recruited units to defend the region. The Soviet plan was simple—drive from the east while also cutting Prussia from the rest of Germany. The Soviets earmarked Rokossovsky’s 2 Belorussian Front for the task with the veteran 5th Guard Tank Army selected for the drive to the sea. The game runs from 13th January 1945–1st February 1945, a total of 10 game turns.

Battle for Pomerania
Pomerania, February 1945: By February 1945 the German Army faced a desperate situation. The Soviets under Zhukov regrouped at the Oder River preparing to press forward to capture Berlin. However, the northern flank of his Belorussian Front was thinly held and the besieged German garrison in the town of Arnswalde continued to hold. Himmler, with his personal credibility in terminal decline, opted to utilize vital German reserves and SS units to launch a relief effort of limited forces to drive south, relieve Arnswalde, and severely disrupt the Soviet plans. Once the Stavka, the Soviet General Headquarters, recognized the danger, clearing Pomerania became their objective for February and early March 1945. Himmler soon found himself out of his depth in a bloody campaign in Northeast Germany. The game runs from 15th February 1945–5th March 1945, a total of 10 game turns.

​Red Dragon Green Crescent Deluxe Edition is a strategic-level simulation of hypothetical future conflicts in and around East Asia, the Indian Ocean, and the Middle East. The time frame is the not-too-distant future, roughly between 2024 and 2035. The game system is based on the proven CSR Award Winning design, Red Dragon Rising (from S&T Magazine #250) and its sequel, Red Dragon Green Crescent (from Modern War #1), as well as variants which were published along the way. Red Dragon Green Crescent Deluxe Edition is a two-player game, adaptable to multi-player and solitaire play, with three primary scenarios allowing for play on either map or a combined game across both.

This deluxe edition accounts for developments in the strategic situation since the original games were published. The People’s Republic of China has in recent years established bases (or at least basing rights) throughout the Indian Ocean. Russia is engaged in a war in Ukraine. The 2021 Taliban victory in Afghanistan shifted the perception of the power of the United States and its Coalition partners.  All around, the powers are bringing online advanced weapons systems and new tactics. This is modeled with two general time frames for the scenarios, one set in the 2020s and the other in the 2030s.

To pledge for Operation Typhoon, visit our shop.

In the autumn of 1941, the last desperate German assault on the Soviet capital is underway. The staggering German successes of the past summer have led to one still unanswered question: Can the war be ended in one last, decisive stroke aimed at the heart of the Soviet nation?

Operation Typhoon is an operational level recreation of this titanic struggle. Players will not be concerned with the intricacies of low-level combat, nor the grand strategic questions of the respective High Commands. Rather, players will be faced with the problems of a corps and army level assault: distributing meager armored formations to the attack, choosing a strong defensive line, allocating supply, and assigning air units to ground support and interdiction missions. The victor will be the player with the greater ingenuity and operational sense.

This updated reprint of the original SPI game delivers new artwork on the maps and counters, enlarging the maps to handle the larger 5/8-inch counters. Additional markers are provided, such as optional Hedgehog defenses, to aid play. Charts and tables and rulebook have been reproduced with new layout and artwork. While the rules have been reformatted with official errata, no changes have been made to the game system. Players are getting the original SPI game in an enlarged and enhanced format. Open the box and find out whether the German offensive on the Soviet capital can be stopped. Pick your side and determine your strategy. The decisions are yours.
