Memoir '44 Refresh Edition (2025) EN

Players: 2 - 4
Ages: 8+
Time: 30 - 45 mins

More than 20 years after it first launched, Memoir '44 is relaunched for today! Memoir '44 is a historical boardgame where players face-off in stylized battles of some of the most famous historic battles of World War II including Omaha Beach, Pegasus Bridge, Operation Cobra and the Ardennes.

Memoir '44 includes over 20 different battle scenarios and features a double-sided hex game board for both beach landings and countryside combat. Each scenario mimics the historical terrain, troop placements and objectives of each army.

Commanders deploy troops through Command and Tactic cards, applying the unique skills of his units -- infantry, paratrooper, tank, artillery, and even resistance fighters -- to their greatest strength. New for the 2025 edition is a redesigned plastic tray and army boxes to hold your units, along with redesigned miniatures with more faithful sculpts, more scenarios, tokens and cards!

Memoir '44 is designed for 2 players but easily accommodates team play. With Memoir '44 Overlord scenarios, players can use multiple boards and up to 8 players to conduct large scale operations, experiencing the challenges of troop coordination and military chain of command on a large scale battlefield. Average game length is between 30 and 60 minutes, encouraging match play where players can command first one side and then the other.

This game is based upon Richard Borg's Command and Colors system.
