Blitz! A World in Conflict is an army-level adaptation of the internationally award winning global World War II game World in Flames. Blitz! A World in Conflict covers the entire globe on one large (approx 1168mm x 820mm) map of the world with different scales covering the main theaters of the war (Europe, North Africa, the Pacific, East Asia and the Atlantic) in greater detail.  

Blitz! A World in Conflict is a stand-alone boxed game. It includes almost 400 counters providing all the armies, air wings, and fleets for all the major combatants and many other countries plus various game markers. It plays in a fraction of the time needed for a full World in Flames campaign game (4 to 8 hours for the entire global war) while still giving players all of the critical decisions and opportunities about which forces to research and build, and where and when to deploy them. A unique victory and variable game end system combines with national objectives for each major power to make for an endless intermixing of strategies, and a highly replayable game. An optional rule even allows you to revise the pre-war political decisions of the 1930s.

At last you can re-fight WWII with both World in Flames style and accuracy, and also with beer and pretzels fun ~ and finish in less than a lifetime.
