Ian Brody's SHAEF World War 2 board game

Created by Will Townshend, PSC Games

A two-player, card-driven World War II strategy game covering the period from June 1944 to March 1945, from the designer of the Quartermaster General series. This shop offers you the chance to pre-order SHAEF ahead of its estimated shipping date in June 2018. Although you will not receive the Kickstarter Exclusive dice, you will benefit from a great discount to the MSRP and we're also offering you the chance to buy another of Ian's games - Victory or Death - at a special discount too.

Latest Updates from Our Project:

Thank you for a successfully funded campaign!

Thanks to you – our backers on this campaign – we are delighted to say that our Kickstarter project has been successfully funded! Thank you very much indeed for your support and for ‘spreading the word’ about Ian Brody’s new board game.

What happens now?

PSC Games’ next tasks are to:

  • Prepare our pledge manager survey to send out to you all in about two weeks’ time. Using the pledge manager, you’ll be able to confirm your address, add optional buys, and the actual shipping costs to your country will be shown.
  • Rework the components that require upgrading due to our unlocked Kickstarter stretch goals (resizing the cards and getting the KS Exclusive dice logo finalised).
  • Send everything for the game to our manufacturer, to get production under way.

Our target date for shipping is June 2018. We’re going to keep you up to date with progress between now and then via occasional Kickstarter updates. We don’t want to overload you with constant updates, but we will ensure that you are sent our most important news between now and the shipping date.

Once again, thanks for getting behind our Kickstarter campaign and for helping to bring SHAEF into being. Expect to receive our pledge manager survey around two weeks from now.

Stretch goal 1 unlocked!
about 6 years ago – Thu, Feb 01, 2018 at 02:29:30 PM

We really want this project to hit its funding target, and we really want to make the components as high-spec as we can. With this in mind, we've decided to lower the stretch goal targets, and have now unlocked the first one.

We're just shy of the amount needed to unlock Stretch Goal 2, and with a little push and your continued support, we’re hoping that SHAEF will unlock all four stretch goals and hit its funding target. We've got just under a week to run, so please help us to spread the word about Ian Brody's latest game!

If you want to find out more about the rules of play, check out our previously posted Updates 1 and 2.

  • STRETCH GOAL 1: GBP £7,500 - UNLOCKED! We'll upgrade the size of the cards from bridge size to poker size. This will make them easier to read and handle.
  • STRETCH GOAL 2: GBP £8,000. We'll mount the game board (rather than using a thick card board).
  • STRETCH GOAL 3: GBP £9,000. We'll double the number of dice in the box - upgrading from 2 ten-sided dice to 4 of them.
  • STRETCH GOAL 4: GBP £10,000. Kickstarter exclusive: In addition to the dice included in the box, we'll send all of our backers 2 exclusive ten-sided dice with a 'SHAEF' logo printed in place of the '10'.
