Greetings friends!

At the Kickstarter coming soon together the Spanish Second Edition and the English First Edition of the basic game that we have been introducing in the previous posts, 2GM TACTICS opens new fronts now adding other Nations to the game. So we hope you support us joining to the battle!

NORTH AFRICA FRONT
2GM Tactics moves to battlefields of Egypt and Lybia. Two new nations are taking part in these battles: Great Britain and Italy.



This expansion pack lets players revive the battles fought by English and Italian forces, before the German Afrika Korps arrival to the theatre of operations.

EAST FRONT

On the other side, Germany breaks the non-aggression pact with USSR and starts the Barbarrossa Campaign, bringing the blitzkrieg to Russian lands.



Most of Spanish players have been asking for new Armies to join the battle, specifically the Red Army. We have worked hard to bring them in within a short period of time.

So, furthermore, the base game cards, new unit types, support cards, terrain cards and Generals shall be added to the game experience. We are even working on a campaign book based in the new available fronts too.

We will keep you informed, and we will see you on the battlefield!

Hi soldiers!

Less than 7 days left for the Kickstarter 2GM TWG launching. We are very nervous waiting for the battle, but we are looking forward to it.

At the North Africa 'Theater', the British 3,7 pounds QF AA batteries are ready to protect the armoured british forces advance, while the Italians try to mislead the British using decoys.




On the other side, at the East front, the German North Army Group have reached the gates of Leningrad. The Soviet city is ready to resist the enemy siege under the command of General Gueorgui Zhukov.



Men are ready and the countdown has started!

We will see you in the battlefield!

Greetings,

Today we bring hot news about 2GM. As many of you requested, we have included 5 new t-shirts as add-ons to the campaign--one per nationality.

Which one do you like the most? The classic US one with an M4 Sherman? Or do you prefer the threatening Panther?



4 sizes are available: M, L, XL and XXL. We hope you like them.

On the other hand, we reached 300 fans at BGG (BoardGameGeek.com). Thanks for making that happen! Now our supporters will enjoy the enormous "Maus" tank and a special scenario.

Thank you for your support.

We will see you on the battlefield!

Greetings friends,

Our next step in the battlefield requires the use of a paratrooper support card... 2GM lands in Gen Con 2016.



You can see and try our games at the Discover International Games event that takes place on Saturday the 6th, from 8.00 PM to 12.00PM.

There shall be one table available for ONUS, where you can see and play with the base game ONUS! Rome Vs Carthage, and the 2 expansion packs -- Terrain & Fortreses and Greeks & Persians.

Furthermore you can have a look at the ONUS! campaign book and the ONUS playmat, both of which have received good responses from backers.

On the other table, you can see 2GM Tactics (1st Spanish Edition). It will be hard to play if you don't speak Spanish, but you'll have an exact idea of the quality we are offering on our kickstarter.

So we hope see you on the battlefield, and GenCon too!
