Osprey Games Announce Undaunted: North Africa For 2020
November 20, 2019 by brennon
Building on their highly successful game, Undaunted: Normandy, Osprey Games has teamed up with David Thompson and Trevor Benjamin once again alongside artist Roland MacDonald to produce a new game in the series, Undaunted: North Africa.
"The North African Campaign has begun. Take control of the British Army’s Long Range Desert Group and operate behind enemy lines or command the formidable Italian forces opposing them. In this sequel to Undaunted: Normandy, players will once again lead their sides through a varied series of missions. As casualties mount, wounded units leave the players’ decks, forcing them to adapt in the face of changing tactical circumstances. Use your cards to strengthen your forces, deploy vehicles to advance rapidly across the battlefield, and seize the initiative as you determine the outcome of the North African Theatre."
In this game, you'll be taking on the role of the well-loved Long Range Desert Group as they battle against the Italian Army across the sands of North Africa. As with Undaunted: Normandy the game will test your tactical and strategic skills as you use both your forces and the landscape to claim, hold or destroy key objectives throughout a number of different missions.
At its heart, the Undaunted series is a deckbuilding game where you are looking to react to dangerous and ever-changing circumstances which mirror the chaos of war. If you're interested in finding out how the game plays and whether or not this might be for you, check out this video from Watch It Played below...
This gives you a nice twenty-minute rundown of the game rules! I have to say the game does look very tempting and the original, Undaunted: Normandy, has done very well across the board. I can imagine this one being just as popular when it releases next year in June 2020.
What do you think of this move to North Africa?

June 2020 is a bit of a long way off. Excited or not now, I’ll have forgotten all about it by then.
A nice bit of desert action.
What did the Africans do to me? Didn’t they invent sandpaper?
