Fall of Empires: Edelweiss Division

Note: This scenario book is sold together with the Galicia 1914 historical study in one package (two books for the price of one).

In August 1914, the Imperial and Royal Austro-Hungarian Army’s finest division marched out of Salzburg and Linz to confront the Russians in Poland. Through four and a half years of bitter warfare, the 3rd “Edelweiss” Mountain Division racked up an astonishing record of battlefield successes, even as the Empire it served finally crumbled around it.

Edelweiss Division continues the tale that we began in Infantry Attacks: Fall of Empires,  with 88 new die-cut, mounted pieces displaying the division’s units in their own special color scheme PLUS the Polish Legion. There are also 30 new scenarios from the December 1914 Battle of Limanowa, and four “battle games” that link them together.

Edelweiss Division is not a complete game; you’ll need is included in the book plus Fall of Empires, August 1914, and Franz Josef’s Armies to play all 30 scenarios (and the battle games).
