About the Game

In Forward Operations, two to four players control border nations rushing to build and man forward operating bases so they can take and hold critical objectives in a neighboring country that is becoming unstable. Win the game by holding those objectives for victory points or by destroying the Command Center of your opponents' bases.

Players start with an established forward operating base, which consists of a Command Center, Barracks and a Power Plant. During the game, you'll play Command Cards to generate resources, which can be used to expand your base, develop new technologies, train or manufacture military units, and wage war on your opponents in bloody, fast-paced combat.

Forward Operations is a turn-based wargame sandbox filled with interesting player decisions and building options. Choose between 14 different buildings to expand your base and 25 different military units to build a personalized army that suits your strategy and playing style. Time and resources are limited, so choose wisely.

See you on the battlefield.
