Tannhäuser puts players in the middle of a alternate timeline, where World War I never ended and the forces involved have chosen new ways to break the stalemate. Featuring the Pathfinding system, a revolutionary way to mark line of sight, Tannhäuser gets players in the thick of the battle quickly. Each side has unique characters and equipment, and must outfit figures to best advantage in order to win. Each force has a multitude of equipment and weapon options for customization. Tannhäuser is packaged with everything required for two to ten players to begin playing in the u-chronic Tannhäuser universe. The game includes a rulebook, a double-sided map board designed for use with the Pathfinding system, 10 finely detailed pre-painted miniatures, 10 illustrated character sheets, two 10-sided dice, and 162 game counters.
