About the game
This expansion for Memoir '44 includes eight painted airplanes and the air rules needed to fly them from the Battle of Britain to the Battle of Midway, from the frigid air of Kursk to the balmy skies of Malta, and deep into Nazi territory. Also included in the pack is a complete compilation of all 64 official Memoir '44 scenarios published to date, including revisions to many of them - taking advantage of the numerous expansions now available for the game system. The Air Pack is further rounded off with a complete 120 card deck describing every single terrain, special rules, troop type and nation introduced since the game's launch at the 60-year anniversary of D-Day. Part of the Memoir '44 series.

Variants for other group sizes, if any, are described in the rulebook of your edition, so check it before setting up a different configuration.
The listed playing time for Memoir '44: Air Pack is 60 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 Memoir '44: Air Pack for ages 8 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.
Memoir '44: Air Pack has a complexity rating of 2.5 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.

The catalogue lists Memoir '44: Air Pack as an expansion for Memoir '44.

Check that your edition of Memoir '44 is compatible, as some expansions were revised between editions.
