About the game
We are pressed on all sides and the enemy is closing in. Word has come down from the Commander-in-Chief and our only order is "Attack!" From designers Mike Selinker and Sean Brown comes the Attack! Deluxe expansion for Glenn Drover's Attack!, which adds to the base game by setting the stage for combat on the Pacific Front. Attack! Deluxe, which replaces the out-of-print Attack! Deluxe Expansion, places you squarely on the frontlines as you vie for world domination. Speak softly or swing your big stick in order to conquer your neighbors and expand your economy. Attack! Deluxe introduces bold new mechanisms with expanded Naval Combat, player government styles, new technology research, and seasonal combat. As the leader of a world power, you can choose to control trade routes on all seven seas or you can blitz the sovereign shores of your nearest nations by land: build the biggest army and crush your enemies before they crush you, or choke the life out of them by cutting their economic supply. All is fair in love and war after all! The cards in Attack! Deluxe replace all of the Attack! base game cards to ensure uniformity, with these cards having better quality base card stock and linen finish with playing card varnish. Attack! Deluxe includes a plastic insert tray to hold all of the pieces from both Attack! and Attack! Deluxe. To use Attack! Deluxe, you need these components from Attack!: Western Theater game board 678 Army Unit miniatures (six sets of 113 pieces in six colors: infantry, artillery, tanks and planes) 8 Red Army battle Dice 2 Blue Order dice
Questions and answers
Attack! Deluxe supports 2–6 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Attack! Deluxe is 90–240 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Attack! Deluxe for ages 10 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Attack! Deluxe has a complexity rating of 2.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
Attack! Deluxe belongs to these categories: Economic, Wargame, and Miniatures. Its main mechanics are Hand Management, Set Collection, and Player Elimination. Categories describe the theme and setting of a game, while mechanics describe what players actually do on their turns. Each mechanic links to a catalogue hub with similar games, which helps when you want something comparable.
The credited designers of Attack! Deluxe are: Glenn Drover, Mike Selinker, and Sean Brown. These credits come from the published game data and name the people responsible for the game’s design, not its illustrators or publishers. Designer pages on MeepleRules collect other titles by the same designers, which helps when you enjoy a game and want to find similar ones.
The catalogue lists Attack! Deluxe as an expansion for Attack!. Expansions add new content, rules or scenarios to the base game and usually cannot be played on their own, so you need Attack! to use it. Check that your edition of Attack! is compatible, as some expansions were revised between editions.
