Overview
Tactical Combat in the Middle East (TCME) is an expansion of the classic boardgame Panzer Blitz. TCME takes the Panzer Blitz system into the 1990's up to present day. This is not a complete game unto itself. You must already own Panzer Blitz, Panzer Leader, or Arab-Israeli Wars in order to play.
TCME introduces all new units representing those that fought in the two Iraq wars, including M1A1 Abrams tanks, M2 Bradley AFVs, AH-64 Apache Attack Helicopters, T-72, 64, and 55 Tanks, ATGMs, fixed-wing aircraft, and anti-aircraft systems to name a few. New rules include unit morale, HQ units, MLRS, and a new indirect fire system that does not require pre-planning.
Battlefield Iraq is the first in a series of expansions of the Panzer Blitz system. Stryker Brigade is already available, and Russian, and special operations variants are already in the works.
