About the game
The Reich Troop Pack for Tannhäuser includes two additional Schocktruppen and Stossstruppen figures.

These Troop Packs give players new options when constructing their forces, and provide an all new pack for their Troops! Each pack also features brand new flavor text, a unique scenario, and all new tokens for the new Troopers as well as the ones found in the core set. This is not a stand-alone game. A copy of Tannhäuser is required to play.

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 Tannhäuser: Reich Troop 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 Tannhäuser: Reich Troop Pack for ages 12 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.
Tannhäuser: Reich Troop Pack has a complexity rating of 2.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game.
