after several months out of print/unavailable
Re-fight the desperate struggle to secure the five bridgeheads on the coast of Normandy, and to develop these into a defensible - and suppliable - foothold from which to liberate Occupied Europe, by capturing the cities of Saint Lo, Cherbourg and Caen; or, equally desperately, to throw back the invading Allied Armies from the beaches into the sea or, failing this, to frustrate their attempts to take the port of Cherbourg, and to so delay their advances & attempts to take Saint Lo & Caen, as to allow your Panzers & Infantry reinforcements to force them back upon themselves, destroying their effectiveness as fighting units, and forcing their evacuation or demeaning surrender, and so protecting the Reich.

Axis & Allies: the Battle of the Bulge - NEW GAME - in 22nd November 2006 ukL 39.99
After the successful D-Day invasion of Normandy, the Wehrmacht was either on the defensive or in rout - with one spectacular exception; the Ardennes winter offensive of 1944, in which an entire army - built up without any apparent realisation or appreciation of its significance by Allied intelligence - was thrown at a quiet sector of the front only weakly defended by merkin troops being "rested" there.
With the good fortune of atrocious weather conditions, the Allies air superiority was useless - and the Wehrmacht swept aside the light defences, driving deep into liberated Europe, and heading for Allied fuel dumps and the Channel Ports.
in this trouser-leg of time the offensive was contained, by a combination of fierce resistence by merkin troops in the area reorganising themselves into adhoc units, British troops driving down from the north, merkin troops from the south, and the eventual breaking of the weather allowing the Allied Air Force to interdict movement by the German Armour: But in your replaying of this famous campaign, it will take a combination of a clear-sighted strategy, successful tactics and flexibility, as well as a little luck, to achieve your army's aim, and prove the victor
contains 157 Plastic Combat Unit Playing Pieces (4 Bomber units, 12 Fighter, 18 Transport, 32 Armour, 44 Artillery & 47 Infantry), 110 Supply Tokens, 135 Plastic Chips, 36 Front-Line Markers, 6 Combat Strips, 4 Reinforcement & 2 Turn-Order Charts, 1 Turn & 1 Victory Point Marker, 12 Dice, the Game Map-Board and the Rulebook

Axis & Allies - NEW REVISED EDITION; RE-STOCK - back in 22nd November 2006 after several months out of print (revised edn. originally in 26th April 2006) ukL 39.99
Classic land, sea & air strategy boardgame of WWII, starting in spring 1942, when the Axis powers were at the high-point in their bid to dominate the world. This new edition adds Artillery & Destroyers to play, upon a re-designed map.
Designed by Larry Harris for 2-5 players from age 12-96; not officially graded, but I'd say "challenging"; this, A&A: E and A&A: P each contain over three hundred pieces, chips, etc, and provide hours of play, teach strategic thought, and can spark or further fuel an abiding interest in history. Victory is not simply won by defeating enemy pieces with your own & your ally's/allies', but also by taking - and keeping - control of territory, with which to produce more - and deciding what to produce, and how to make best use of it.

On your way to this challenge, you must battle your way through dank and dangerous corridors, trapped temples and volcanoes, facing scyything blades, thundering cascades of boulders, and boiling-hot lava, kobolds, the blood-sucking ferrox, and indomitable golems.

Guide to Charted Space from 1248; a century after the Third Imperium tore itself apart in civil war, and dragged the rest of Charted Space down into ruin, humanity still teeters on the brink of extinction - but now there is hope: the powers of the New Era are beginning to emerge from the dark age in the forms of the Fourth Imperium, the Freedom League, the Terran Commonwealth & the Zhodani Concord, and others.
Out of the Darkness is the first of the New Era: 1248 Sourcebooks and covers the Unified History of Charted Space, from summarising the Ancient Times of the Droyne, and their development of the servant races, through the First Imperium of the Vilani, through the Solomani/Vilani Interstellar Wars & the ramshackle Second Imperium or Rule of Man, the ensuing two thousand-year Long Night, into the Third Imperium established by Cleon I and his successors, through various wars (and times of peace) into the first & secons Civil Wars, the Collapse, the Hard Times - and the Plague: The Coming of Virus. these latter events are given in increasingly full detail, as are the details of the development of all of the human and alien cultures, how they survived the coming of Virus, and the stages and attempts at empire that eventually led up to the establishing of the Fourth Imperium.
the second half of this sourcebook covers the situation as it stands at the true opening of the New Era, once the dust and the chaos of the climactic Second Battle of Gateway have just begun to settle; the last two-thirds of it presenting Information for Referees (GMs), including Appendices on World Construction, Collapse/Recovery Effects, Tech Level & Starport Decline, Life Support Interruption, & Government Change; Post-Collapse Law Level, Technophobia & Xenophobia, Balkanisation, Collapse & the generation of Recovery Random Events; the Second Appendix details the County of Ukse, its worlds, and adventuring within it, and in neighbouring worlds

The Created do not come into this world knowing the road their Pilgrimage to Mortality must take; they learn it either from their creators, or sometimes their fellow pilgrims; or through frequently bitter experience. And every discovery, each fresh insight, only adds to their uncertainty, in a world that shuns them first - and hardly ever gets around to second or third thoughts about them. All the Created can do, is to press on with their search.
The Pilgrimage is a lonely road, that all of the Created must, sooner or later, tread.

Clash of Giants II: the Campaigns of Galicia & [First Battle of] Ypres 1914 - NEW WAR GAME - available 22nd November 2006 ukL 35.99
"Wipers" is well-known in Western Europe, even yet; though the last of the WW I survivors of the three "meat-mincing" battles to bear the name have now met for the last official battlefield commemmoration, and the horrors of that holocaust are fading; quite why the generals of both sides were prepared to indulge in strategies so wasteful of human life is a topic for PhD theses; can you find a way to break through your opponent's lines, outflank their armies, and win a resounding victory before the casualty lists render it Pyrrhic - and essentially pointless?
the Galician campaign is far less well-known; few now recall that Imperial Russia moved to support its ally, Serbia - whose head of secret police was actually the raving nutter [well, fanatically dangerous pan-slav/Serbian nationalist] whose machinations led to the assassination that triggered the Great War - by invading the North-Eastern provinces of the Hapsburg's Austro-Hungarian Empire, let alone that the offensive was successful - at least, to begin with....
