Description: Created by Richard Borg, Memoir '44 was originally developed to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the D-Day landings in Normandy. The board game has become a historical phenomenon, selling over 100,000 copies at retail. Game play centers on hundreds of different WWII battle scenarios, each mimicking the lay of the battlefield and the troop placements and objectives of each army. Commanders deploy their troops into action through the play of Command and Tactic cards that greatly contribute to the game's flavor and tactical challenges.
