From LnL:
Band of Heroes Normandy (formally Band of Heroes Deluxe) is our redo of the original Band of Heroes. With full-color rules, additional full color scenarios/counters, and several more years of development, Band of Heroes Normandy is better than the original in every way. Yet perhaps the most exciting news is the addition of our most popular expansion of all time, Lock ‘n Load: Swift and Bold, into the base game, Band of Heroes Normandy. That’s right; each copy of Band of Heroes Normandy includes not only full color rules, scenarios, and thoughtful revisions, but also a complete copy of Swift and Bold with its counters and for the first time, full color scenario cards. Additionally, and only available if you preorder the game now, will be a new eight-scenario campaign, and the counters to play it with. In total, you will receive over 570 lavishly drawn counters, 6 geomorphic maps, over 36 scenarios, 2 full-color player aid cards, 18 skill cards that increase play by assigning unique abilities such as range, bravery, better firepower, leaders, heroes and much more.
You’ll command Airborne Glider Troops, SS Panzergrenadiers, Fallschirmjager, StuG, PzIIIJ, Marder I, Pz35-S, Tiger I, Panther G, 20mm Flak guns, Panzer MKIV, M4A1, M10, M5A1, Jeeps, 88mm, 57,mm, 60mm, 81mm mortar Weapon Teams, MG43, MG34, M1919A4, .30 cal, BAR, Piats, the British 2” mortar, Vickers MG, 2 Pounder ATG, Horsa glider, Cromwell, Firefly, Bren and much more, all drawn with precise detail and set against high quality maps.
