About the game
You left the family farm to go to war, innocent and naive but full of courage and heroic fantasies. Only, the fighting got the better of your youth, of your hopes. Forced marches, skirmishes, ambushes… the last one went wrong, and you found yourself isolated from the rest of your company. Alone! The countryside around you pulses with danger. Every grove, every ruined house, seems to harbor a threat. You tighten your grip on your rifle, your brother in arms, and advance towards what you think are the positions of your unit… The single player mode allows you to play solo, and brings with it a lot of exclusive material. It's a whole new way of playing that you are about to discover. With three levels of difficulty to choose from, you are sure to find an opponent of your size. With two scenarios to introduce you to the principles of the single player mode, the rule book also brings a list of adaptations allowing you to play (or replay) almost all scenarios released so far for Heroes of Normandie and Heroes of Stalingrad. Be careful, though, the enemy is not always the one you think. You must own a Heroes of Normandie, or Heroes of Stalingrad Core Box to play this Solo Mode. — description from the publisher
