Urban Battle

Early Pledge Gift period has expired

The first 72 hours of the campaign have passed, ending the Early Pledge Gift ('Flamethrowers and Explosives' mini expansion). The last backer to get the gift is #83. This mini expansion can also be ordered in the pledge manager as an add-on.

Another review of Urban Battle was recently published on BGG, by Miodrag Arsić. Here are a few quotes, and the full text can be found here.

"Rulebook is so smooth and concise. ... At first I was surprised how this game, even tho rules seemed simple, offered so many possibilities."

"Shooting is exciting as well. There is a range of shooting for each tank and each tank has an armour value. So the closer you are and more on the side or back you are the easier will be to destroy the enemy. This part of the game is masterfully designed. So simple but it feels just right."

A video review by Marco Arnaudo has also been posted on YouTube:

Funded and first stretch goal
about 1 year ago – Sun, Apr 06, 2025 at 10:19:22 AM

We are happy to announce that the goal in this campaign has been reached ($2000) after 9 hours from the start. We would like to thank all the backers who supported us.

The first stretch goal ($3000) was also recently reached: turn counter. This element is not necessary for playing games, but it is very useful, especially in some scenarios.

We are now announcing that the second stretch goal will be at $7000: high and low barricades.

Those barricades play a role in many scenarios. In some of them, the exact positions on the board will be assigned, and in others, the players will be able to place them at their choice. Barricades can significantly change the configuration of the terrain by closing some streets.
