Description

It's the summer of 1944, and Allied forces fight to liberate occupied France from Germany. It's a titanic struggle that pits the advanced weaponry of the German Army against the air power, artillery and ever-improving soldiers of the Allies. Welcome to Nations at War series.

White Star Rising is the first game in the Nations at War series. White Star Rising depicts platoon level combat in World War II. In White Star Rising you'll find everything you're looking for in a platoon level game: armor, artillery, infantry serving as more than cannon fodder, command and control, air support, and desperate close assaults that leave the victor in possession of the ground and the defeated in headlong retreat. All included in an easy to learn and challenging to master game system. White Star Rising, which focuses on the fighting between the Americans, their British allies, and Germans, Unit types include vehicles, soldiers and weapons of the armies that fought in France, Belgium and Germany in 1944-45. You'll fight battles at Omaha Beach, in the Lorraine, on the outskirts of Belgium, and in Germany itself.

In the Second Edition, you will find we designed everything from the ground up, newly designed maps, counters, player aids, scenarios and of course v2.0 of the Core Rules. We now include a new design your own scenario generator adding hours of play to your game.
