"Lines of Fire: The Boardgame" brings the classic board game wargame experience to tablets. It takes advantage of the tablet's features to streamline the setup and gameplay but retains the old-school feeling of playing an actual board game.

The game is a fresh design reflecting the tactical WW2 combat in Western Front. The typical scenario-based approach has been replaced by a RTS-style gameplay: players begin the battle on an empty map and race to take control over majority of strategic locations. Their main concern is to outsmart the opponent in finding an effective balance between spending resources on maneuvering the forces in play or bringing new units into battle.

"Lines of Fire: The Boardgame" is built on simple, accessible ruleset, which provides a thematic feel to the firefights. An innovative Fog of War option, utilizes tablets features to enrich the board game experience.

Features:
- play as Americans or Germans
- 7 unit types with unique characteristics
- 11 realistic maps depicting WW2 West Front locations
- play against a human or AI opponent
- innovative Fog-of-War option
- set of in-game manual, hints and tips
