About the game

What you do in a play session

Hey there, battlefield commanders! If you're already hooked on the tactical chaos of Warfighter, get ready to upgrade your missions with Expansion #3: Support. This gem brings more firepower and support to your squad, expanding the possibilities of the base game. Think mortars raining down from the sky, spy drones (UAVs) providing that crucial aerial view, and snipers ensuring deadly precision from afar.

This expansion introduces new soldiers for your team, both those you control and the enemies that will give you a headache. There are also new missions and objectives to keep the adrenaline pumping, plus brand-new locations to explore and conquer. To add that extra spice, you'll find new actions, location markers, weapons, equipment, and skills that will change how you plan your tactics. And of course, more enemies to face, because the fun only increases with a good challenge!

Keep in mind that, as an expansion, you'll need the base Warfighter game to use these new additions. And prepare your vocabulary, as the game features a lot of text on the cards, requiring good English proficiency or a translation handy to enjoy everything to the fullest. But for fans of tactical warfare who love rolling dice to see who comes out on top, it'll be worth every minute of reading and planning. It's the perfect addition for those seeking more depth and variety in their Warfighter sessions!
