Against the Odds Annual 2015: Four Roads to Paris

Against the Odds Annual 2015: Four Roads to Paris is a magazine-annual wargame package examining the 1940 campaign in France through four complete simulations.

Product Type: Annual magazine issue with included wargames.

Rather than presenting a single treatment of the fall of France, Four Roads to Paris gives four designers different angles on the same central question: why did France fall so quickly in 1940? The included games explore planning failures, German operational strengths, Allied cooperation and mistrust, and the shock effect of mobile German formations on Allied decision-making.

The four included simulations are The Seeds of Disaster, Springtime for Hitler, Betrayal!, and Strange Victory. Together they offer a comparative look at the campaign, from diplomatic and intelligence failures to battlefield momentum and command paralysis.

Contents include: four full-color 17” x 22” area maps, over 300 full-color die-cut counters, 24 cards, rules for each game, charts and tables, and the 2015 Against the Odds Annual.
