Medfront - Columbia Games War in North Africa-Unpunched Unstickerd Good/Mint

Description: MedFront details the conflict between the Allies and Germany during WWII from 1940-43, as well as the Spanish Civil War from 1936-39. Players have to contend with production, supply, command control and the weather to break the other side's lines and achieve victory. The game comes with a fantastic detailed map of Spain and North Africa printed on card and many wooden blocks for the units. This is just one portion of the complete EuroFront series, which covers the entire European conflict of WWII.This title uses Columbia Games Block system. While there are variations in the rule sets, all of their games are based on the block system. Basically this means that rather than using the traditional counters to represent units on the map the game uses wooden blocks that stand upright with unit details only shown on one side. This does two things: First it provides an easy way of producing a "fog of war" because your opponent can not tell, save through good memory, what type of unit a specific piece is or its current strength. Second, having the blocks stand on end allows the possibility of rotating a block so the current strength is the top number. Although most war games have some type of mechanism that lets units take steps in their overall strength, counters normally have at most two steps because they only have two sides. Blocks, however, have four so you can easily keep track of twice the amount of detail that many other war games provide. With the use of blocks Columbia has provided a way of adding a good deal of depth to their war games without adding complex layers of bookkeeping, allowing interesting and relatively short sessions of play.WestFront II: The War in Europe 1943-45 – Second Edition includes updated MedFront maps and some Spanish units; EuroFront: The War in Europe, 1936-45 – Second Edition has the updated MedFront rules (and the Spanish Civil War scenario and other Spanish units) for those maps.MedFront is an expansion to the WestFront, game extending coverage into the Mediterranean Theatre 1936-1943.Components are provided for two separate games: "The Western Desert Campaign 1940 to 1942 and the Spanish Civil War 1936 to 1939. A third game, The Torch Campaign is also included, but this requires the use of some units from the WestFront game. Each scenario is playable in 2-3 hours Looking for a War Game? Check my other listings. More to come (50 +).A lot of games on eBay are listed with the comment "seems to be complete". All of my games are inventoried to ensure they are complete. This means that small pieces are sorted and counted. In most cases, if there are any missing pieces, I can tell you which pieces are missing. This is time consuming and big dealers cannot invest the necessary time for this amount of detail. My games are priced to be equal to or lower than other listings in the "same general condition" as the ones that I am listing.
