Designer Atsuo Yoshizawa Publisher Arclight Players 2-5 Playtime 60 mins Suggested Age 12 and up Integrates With Barbarossa Additional Info 86167/el-alamein http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/86167/el-alamein/forums/63 A sequel to Arclight's deckbuilding game Barba*Rossa (ばるば★ろっさ), El*Alamein depicts the first battle of El Alamein during WWII, as the Axis powers thrust through Africa to conquer Alexandria. Like its predecessor, the artwork in El*Alamein consists of scantily clad anime girls, although a historical edition featuring photographs is also available.Although it's technically possible to use the cards in both sets together, El*Alamein is first and foremost a game on its own, and is better described as a "compatible sequel" than a standalone expansion.
