History of War: Axis Expansion (2003)

Overview

The Axis expansion set is an expansion for the base-game History of War. It uses the same game mechanics but introduces new units into HoW. As always there is a solid mixture of base improvements, territory improvements, units and action cards.

The Axis Expansion Set may not be played stand-alone.

From the back of the box: (including typos) For the first time in card game history, fans of both card an strategy games will be able to experience a phenomenal and stunning new gaming experience.
