These figures can be deployed over many of the existing Memoir '44 scenarios and are also heavily featured in the eleven Standard, two Breakthrough and four Overlord new scenarios that come in the Equipment Pack. A rules booklet and 25 Summary cards complement this pack. This expansion requires at least one copy of the Memoir '44 base game. Many of its expansions are required to enjoy most of the included scenarios. We recommend that players at minimum own the Terrain Pack and the Winter/Desert board.
In a press release accompanying the announcement, Days of Wonder CEO Eric Hautemont said, "The Equipment Pack is the definitive Memoir '44 figure expansion. Combined with the earlier Eastern Front, Pacific and Mediterranean Theater army packs, fans now have just about every type of troops and weapons they're likely to engage in battles across every theater of World War II."
The Memoir '44 Equipment Pack, which is multilingual in English and French, will carry a $60 MSRP and be available in the U.S. in mid-August 2012, ideally launching at the 2012 Gen Con game convention. The expansion will be available in Europe in September 2012 with a retail price of €54.
