Operation Commando traces the fighting of the 6th Airborne for the control of the two bridges of Ranville and Benouville, later renamed Horsa and Pegasus bridge, the assault on the Merville battery and the destruction of the bridges that cross the Dives.
This is a "duel" mode game (2 players) in which one of the players will try to make his opponent fall. a game lasts between 30 and 45 minutes. the game's format, compact box, makes it ideal for travel. it can also be played in a limited space (tested in a tgv or coffee table...) with some organization.
three historical scenarios are proposed as well as an initiation scenario around the capture of the benouville bridge as part of a faster game. ideal for starting or training a new player. a campaign rule allows players to complete the three historical scenarios in one evening by a simple system for calculating the number of victory points acquired by English.
each side, English and German, has its own set of cards representing combat units, combat actions and events. Heroic cards specific to each scenario bring a strong historical touch.
English will have to progress through fields represented-playing your opponent") and planning to go far... The random setting up and shuffling of cards at the beginning of the game (although you can change your initial hand) bring an important replayability.
Pegasus Bridge is the first part of the Operation Commando series which should propose for 2015 "st mother church" around the drops of the American paratroopers of the 82nd and 101st Airborne. A "day-days" module will complete the commando operations of June 6 with the maritime landings of the Rangers at Pointe du Hoc, the investment of Port en Bessin by the Royal Marines Commandos and the assault on Ouistreham by the French Marine Commandos of Kieffer. This module will then link all operations together for a super-disembarkation campaign.

Jeu sur le thème des opérations des commandos anglais qui ont eu lieu aux première heures du débarquement de Normandie. La mécanique paraissait complexe mais on s'adapte vite après 2 /3 parties surtout en regardant les vidéos de tric trac.
On y retrouve des lieux, des personnages ou des évènements qui ont réellement existé dans chacun des trois scénarios qui ont une mécanique différente. J'adore en temps que passionner d'histoire.
De plus le bluff peut aussi avoir beaucoup son importance. Cela devient alors vite un poker historique.
Bref un grand jeu dans une petite boite bien remplie qui est très prenant. Rejouable indéfiniment. A avoir absolument ! J'ai commandé la deuxième boite que j'attend avec impatience sur le thème des actions des Paras Américains.
