Osprey Games | Undaunted: Normandy | Board Game | Ages 14+ | 2 Players | 45 to 60 Minutes Playing Time

I bloody love this game. It's a great price for the amount of replayability and hours you can get out of it. I love the art of the box and the cards, I love the overall aesthetic of it all.The game mechanics themself are really well thought out and it doesn't take so long to play your turn that your opponent will get bored, making it also very attractive to people that will have never played it before.Talking of new players, the rules are simple enough that it wouldn't take but 10 minutes to explain to someone how to play the game, maybe even less if you just show them along the way, and they won't feel like they're missing out on anything either since all the actions you can take are clearly listed and they can easily refer to the rule book if they want to check something. This game is also so easy to remember how to play that you won't probably won't need the rulebook yourself, but on the flip side, it's not so easy in the fact that you actually have to think about your moves and strategies to win. It's a perfect mix of complication, enough so, that it won't scare of people from giving the game a try.There's only one downside to this whole game really, and that's luck, but most board games have an element of luck in them, it's upto you whether the luck of a dice is going to ruin the board game for you or your friends.Anyway, it's a 5/5 from me. A keeper for many years I think.

Excellent value for money. Sturdy box and nice components.Played a lot of wargames and this one is really good with easy rules and Plenty to think about Plenty of different missions to choose from which play from around 30 minutes to and hour or so. Recommended.

I bought this along with reinforcements to play mainly solo. Haven’t even started on the expansion yet but Normandy seems like a solid game and very easy to play solo. The rules are nice and easy to understand my first game learning the rules and setup took about an hour or a little more but I can see that being much quicker once you don’t have to refer to the book for the keywords. I can see this coming to the table often as it’s nice and easy to play and set up and especially with the rules not being super complicated like most war games.

Very enjoyable game, simply to pick up and play, will have moments off pure bliss when you get a few good rolls and wipe out your oppo, or have tears in the eyes when you lose a few German comrades. Either way a nice way to pass the time.

Squad movement a bit too artificial and squad player changes too random, However an interesting game with an unusual and enjoyable game play. Quick too, so good for a best out of three..... A beer and pretzels version of Up Front.

Game is fun with strategic depth and quality components.The rules aren't great, would suggest watching a video.

My partner is interested in all things WW2 and I interested in all things board games so this was a perfect combination. We both really enjoy playing this game and have yet to work our way through all of the different scenes. It is easily one of our top choices of board games at the moment.

Ace, can't stop playing. A must play game.
