About The Dark Sands War in North Africa
"The Dark Sands" takes the wargame system from Ted S. Raicer’s sold-out and critically acclaimed The Dark Valley: The East Front Campaign to the legendary battles of North Africa in World War II. From the most successful British armored operation of the war, Operation Compass, to the climactic battle two years later at El Alamein, The Dark Sands breaks new ground in portraying the campaigns of the British 8th Army and Rommel’s Afrika Korps.
Mechanics: Chit-Pull System, Dice Rolling, Grid Movement, Hexagon Grid, Simulation · Designer: Ted Raicer
