About the game
What you do in a play session
Tannhäuser: Reich Troop Pack is the expansion that boosts your miniature collection, adding two new figures – a Schocktruppen and a Stossstruppen – with colors that stand out from the base game. The twist? The alternate color scheme makes it easy to spot them on the battlefield and gives your army a more vibrant look. Alongside the pieces, the pack includes a unique scenario, brand‑new tokens, and flavor text that adds an authentic historical touch. If you already own Tannhäuser, just open the pack and start building your force with more strategic options. The expansion isn’t standalone, so remember to have the base game on hand. In gameplay terms, the Reich Troop Pack keeps the dice‑rolling and variable player powers mechanics that are the core of Tannhäuser, but adds variety to the unit mix, letting you experiment with new tactical combos. The experience remains intense, with games lasting about 60 minutes and supporting 2 to 10 players – perfect for larger groups who enjoy a miniature war challenge. If you love war games with miniatures, historical themes, and want to expand your arsenal without swapping the base game, this expansion is for you. It brings more depth and replayability, but remember: it requires the base game and the cost may be a factor for those who haven’t yet purchased Tannhäuser.
