The listed playing time for Attack! Deluxe Expansion is 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.

Attack! Deluxe Expansion 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 Expansion are: Mike Selinker and Sean Brown.

The catalogue lists Attack! Deluxe Expansion 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.
