 Avalon
Hill's second addition to it's "Squad
Leader" series, "Crescendo Of Doom" extends the fight to include the
Nazi invasion of Poland, the heroic defense of Finland, the battle for
France and more. New features include obstacle bypass movement, wagons,
sleighs, ski units, motorcycles, bridges, assault boats, gliders and more.
The entire British OOB is included for the entire war so fans of the Western

a stand-alone game. You MUST have "Squad

An
important note regarding Avalon Hill games
- It was not unusual for Avalon Hill to re-publish most of their games
with 2nd, 3rd or more Editions. Sometimes the game components changed,
sometimes they didn't. If your game components do not correspond exactly
with what is listed, do not despair. You may just have to do a little more
checking to insure its completeness.
