About this game

Sniper Elite: The Board Game turns the video game's cat-and-mouse tension into a tabletop hidden movement duel. One player becomes the sniper, sneaking through occupied territory by stealth or force, while up to three others control German squads trying to protect key objectives and hunt the sniper down. The sniper draws targeting chits from a bag before taking a shot, but a smart defensive setup can throw off the aim entirely, so nothing is ever a guaranteed kill. Movement stays hidden, positioning is everything, and every round is a quiet negotiation between patience and risk. It plays lean for a WWII miniatures game, roughly 70 minutes, and captures that stalking, one-shot-one-kill feeling the source material is known for.
