if you buy a couple of polou jr 12v12 they do all the job, they countrol the motors and they connect you to the x-sim software, so you dont need to buy another board.

there is another cheaper pololu card, i dont remember the name, that is just an h-bridge, used to only control the motors, and needs also another board to connect you to your pc, but again if you buy pololu 12v12 they do all the job

best regards

As ferslash says , pololu JRK board, one per motor , they will handle 14 v at 30 amps with heat sink on the big chip and fan cooling.
