WAR HOUNDS
is an asymmetric euro-combat hybrid for 1 to 6 players. The great continent of Doggerland is at War. The futures and fortunes of nations are at stake. As the leader of a canine nation you must wade through the quagmire of mechanized warfare. Troops will be mustered, roaring artillery cannons built, mobilized and fired. Trades will be made, technologies discovered and implemented in battle. All in the name of war. Just over the ridge, there is a glimmering light. Is it the radiant glow of the promise of victory, or is it the fading embers of artillery fire? |
WAR HOUNDS boasts the smoothest integration of EURO and COMBAT elements of any hybrid yet, but, perhaps, more importantly, incredibly captures the challenges and trials every World War One soldier faced, all in a world of its own.
|
WAR HOUNDS comes in a BIG BOX, sized to be the same width and length as many of your other favorite games, with some extra height to ensure a comfortable fit for all of the components.

WAR HOUNDS'S huge main board features a large map of Doggerland containing or connected to the AERIAL, MARINE, TERRAIN arenas,
plus spaces--featuring authentic World War One art--for nations to gain technologies, policies, loans, trades, trenches, roads, rails, medals, badges and more! |
WAR HOUNDS'S biggest claim to fame are the
beautifully painted, using authentic restored WW1 posters, SIX DOUBLE-SIDED playerboards of the TWELVE unique asymmetric factions, each with its own unique General, units, economies, and action selection mechanisms. |
WAR HOUNDS is jam-packed with chitboard goodies like canine generals, war-time technologies, national policies, trenches, rails, roads, SIX sets of EIGHT unique combat cards, and more!

WAR HOUNDS is underscored with a metaphorical ton of custom meeples, including dog soldiers, artillery cannons, WW1 tanks, battleships, U-boat style submarines, bi-planes and large bombers. The cherry on top of this combative canine sundae are the custom dice:
Artillery D20's of 3 types, Aeroplane D 12's, and Infantry D6's. |
