Zeppelin Attack!: Doomsday Weapons is an expansion for Zeppelin Attack! released in 2014 for 2–4 players, 45 minutes per game, and ages 12 and up. It was designed by Eric B. Vogel.
The first expansion for the Zeppelin Attack pulp-themed Zeppelin card game. It adds several new types of cards: atomic attacks and defenses, experimental attacks, science zeppelins, as well as new cards of the existing types from the base game. This expansion adds a lot of variety to the game. Dominate the skies...and your opponents! This is not a stand-alone game, the base game is required to play.
Zeppelin Attack!: Doomsday Weapons supports 2–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. 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 Zeppelin Attack!: Doomsday Weapons is 45 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 Zeppelin Attack!: Doomsday Weapons 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.
