A chopper's got your cannon pinned down and a Special Forces unit is rapidly approaching to take out your HQ. You maneuver your humvee within striking distance of the chopper and deploy an infantry unit to protect your HQ. Then you desperately wait for your tank to appear and tip the balance of power in your favor. A real battle in an on-going war? No, one of 15 realistic combat scenarios found in COUP de GRâCE, a fast-paced, two-player combat board game designed to put your gaming skills to the test, time and again.
