Flames of War: German Heavy Tank Hunter Kampfgruppe - combined arms battle group. BATTLE FRONT GEAB21

Product contents German Heavy Tank Hunter Kampfgruppe

The German Heavy Tank Hunter Kampfgruppe by Flames of War allows you to bring a powerful combined-arms formation created ad hoc to respond to front-line tactical demands in World War II to the gaming table. Kampfgruppen (battle groups) integrated elements of tanks, tank destroyers, mechanized infantry, reconnaissance vehicles, anti-aircraft coverage, and heavy artillery support into a single flexible, highly effective force.

This box brings together fearsome long-range tank destroyers like the Jagdpanther and Hornisse, supported by the mobility of Panzer IVs, direct support from Hummel self-propelled guns, and the rapid assault capability of Armoured Panzergrenadiers aboard Sd Kfz 251 half-tracks.

How to use the German Heavy Tank Hunter Kampfgruppe in Flames of War

On the battlefield, this set serves as a complete, independent battle force or the ideal foundation for a new Late-War German army. Its combined-arms design allows you to dominate multiple phases of the game: destroy enemy armor at long range with 8.8cm guns, secure objectives with infantry in half-tracks, perform reconnaissance with Puma armored cars, and protect your columns from air strikes with Ostwind anti-aircraft tanks.

It also includes the full rulebook and unit cards needed to jump straight into the action.
