American Tank Ace: 1944-1945 (2022)

About this game

American Tank Ace is a solitaire, tactical game where the player is in control of a single tank fighting across Europe starting shortly after D-Day. Players start in tank school and buy skills for themselves and their crew members as they fight battles against randomly generated forces with the help of notional friendly units. As new tanks become available, players can upgrade to one of nine versions of the Sherman tank and eventually the M26 Pershing. —description from the designer

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 1 player — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 2.4/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
