Downfall: Conquest of the Third Reich, 1942-1945

A two-player, two-front struggle to reshape postwar Europe-control the Allies or the Soviets and drive the Reich to defeat!

Players take command of Allied and Axis forces across both Eastern and Western fronts. The Western player controls both the Western Allies and OKH (German forces in the east), while the Soviet player handles the USSR and OKW (Axis forces in the west). Gameplay starts from November 1942 and continues until Germanys surrender in May 1945. The innovative initiative track system determines turn order: factions pay initiative costs by advancing their marker, triggering combat, events, weather changes, or strategic shifts. Gameplay revolves around managing resources, deploying units, and playing action cards to influence battles and turn structure.
