This 2nd MBT expansion focuses on BAOR’s armored and mechanized forces. The "British Army of the Rhine" (BAOR) was formed at the conclusion of World War II from various units of the British 21st Army Group. Positioned on the North German Plain, it is the command element of NATO’s Northern Army Group (NORTHAG). BAOR has command authority over the British 1st Corps, as well as the West German 1st Corps, US III Corps, and the French, Belgium and Dutch contingents to NATO.

This box contains 10 new scenarios. The 4 new double-sided geomorphic maps can be combined with all other MBT base game and expansion maps to create new battlefields. Detailed TO&Es for the British Forces are also included. As a new feature - 10 double-sided Leader counters per force are included, 30 total counters (US, British and Soviet).

In order to play this expansion only the MBT basic game is required. The MBT: FRG and/or MBT: 4CMBG expansions are not.

Leaders as a new feature add a powerful dynamic to MBT. They represent individuals of various ranks and skills that can influence gameplay in a number of unique ways. In almost all cases, scenarios do not indicate the presence of any particular leader or leaders. Players may freely add any number of leaders or none at all. Just decide by mutual agreement. Follow the recommended command structure below, or just go with whatever works. There is no correct or incorrect approach as battlefield conditions make for very fluid situations. There may be occasions where junior officers or NCOs find themselves in overall command or senior officers are commanding only a small contingent.
