About the game

What you do in a play session

If you're already a fan of Conflict of Heroes and feel like your battlefields are getting a bit too predictable, gear up! The Marsh Map Missions is here to bring some seriously tricky terrain to your gaming table. This isn't just any random board; it's a thematic expansion that transports your tactical skirmishes straight into the heart of a swamp, where every single move could be a life-or-death decision.

Originally debuted back in 2008 at Origins, this map was designed to provide that extra layer of environmental challenge that every wargamer craves. What makes this version special is its versatility and updated look. The 2019 revised version was specifically polished to match the visual style of the third edition, ensuring it looks great alongside your current setup.

So, what's actually in the box? You get a single-sided battlefield board featuring a detailed wetland environment. The mission variety is where it really shines: it includes two firefights designed for use with 'Awakening the Bear' components. But wait, there's more! The updated version also adds a third firefight that utilizes 'Storms of Steel' components. This is a huge win for players, as it ensures the expansion remains relevant whether you are playing with the classic system or the more recent ruleset.

Playing in a marshland isn't just about the vibes; in a tactical wargame, the terrain directly impacts unit movement and combat engagement. It's the perfect supplement to keep your Conflict of Heroes sessions fresh and challenging. If you're looking to test your command skills under adverse geographical conditions and want to break the monotony of standard maps, this marshland mission set is exactly what your collection needs!
