About the game
The Battle of Bir Hakeim and the delays which it caused to the Axis offensive contributed to the cancellation of Operation Herkules, the invasion of Malta. The Free French forces fiercely defended the oasis known as Bir Hakeim against a superior marauding Panzerarmee force, taking heavy casualties, but in turn became a moral and propaganda victory in its own right, proving the effectiveness of the French forces. This set adds 56 cards to your Warfighter WWII North Africa game, including new Free French Soldiers and Squad Vehicle, Germnan Hostiles, Missions, Locations, Objectives, Gear and Skills cards. This expansion offers 56 cards including: 4 French Player Soldiers 4 French Non-Player Soldiers 4 French Squad Soldiers 1 Squad Vehicle 11 Weapons and Gear 4 Skills 6 Missions 5 Objectives 14 Locations 3 German Hostiles + Events
