Conflict of Heroes from Academy Games (distributed by Mayfair) merges the elegance of Euro board game rules with the platoon level tactics and strategy of complex war games. Players manage multiple command resources to move, attack, and take other actions with their units, which provides great flexibility in the execution of battle plans, but makes constant caution necessary as unit activations on either side can happen at any time.
Conflict of Heroes: Price of Honor—Poland 1939 (MSRP $50.00) was designed by Uwe Eickert for two players ages 12 and up. It takes anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours to play and requires ownership of Awakening the Bear or Storms of Steel (see “Storms of Steel”) to play. Set during the initial stages of World War II, Price of Honor includes a rules addendum for cavalry charges.
The deluxe Price of Honor box contains 2 new Polish landscape mounted boards, 2 sheets of early war Polish, German, and Russian tanks, airplanes, and other units, another sheet including all Awakening the Bear upgraded counters with new artwork and updated stats, 16 firefights—10 playable with the Awakening the Bear base game and 10 playable with the Storms of Steel base game, plus new summary sheets summarizing terrain and unit data for all Eastern Front games.
