This expansion introduces the series' ninth battlefield, bringing the conflict to an iconic setting: the Cannes promenade. Imagine the clash between a luxury yacht and the famous Palais des Festivals serving as the base for your miniatures. The map isn't just visually striking; it introduces a genuine tactical challenge with bases positioned over water, forcing you to rethink your movement and how you exert control over the board's zones. The core objective remains that classic two-player duel: either you capture the enemy headquarters in a decisive strike, or you accumulate enough medals to prove your strategic superiority. With the addition of new restrictions and effects scattered across the terrain, 'La Croisette' pushes players out of their comfort zone and requires them to adapt their usual tactics. It is the type of expansion that doesn't radically alter the base game, but adds that extra layer of depth that frequent players crave. If you enjoy quick duels where every troop movement counts and the tension escalates until the very last second, this new board will become a staple on your table. Ready your pieces, analyze the new routes over the water, and see if you can dominate the promenade before your opponent seizes your HQ. It is strategic, fast-paced, and above all, a perfect excuse to pull Toy Battle off the shelf and set up a new match today. ## FAQ ### Do I need the base game to play 'La Croisette'?
