The War in the East

Jurgen stayed low, crawling over rubble. Soviet machine-gun fire from a Maxim HMG blasted bits of brickwork off the wall he was pressed against. In Stalingrad, to be seen was to die.

The rest of Jurgen's squad were crouched own, staying well out of sight. Klaus and Munsch began checking the fuel tanks and regulators of their flame-throwers. Hendrich finished wrapping wire around a grenade bundle. Palluck honed the edge of his entrenching tool.

Jurgen looked through a crack in the wall. The Russians inside waited nervously for the Germans to come through. With a nod from Jurgen, Heinrich threw his primed grenade bundle through a hole blasted in the wall. The Squad flinched as the explosion threw debris and smoke out of the opening. Jurgen waved the squad forward.

'Klaus! Munsch! You're up!'

By the end of 1941, the German blitzkrieg had swept across open plains of the Soviet Union and stopped at the gates of Moscow as winter set in. The halt was only temporary as the Germans were back on the offensive in the summer 1942. The attack sliced into the southern front, aiming at the oilfields of the Caucasus. Two army groups charged forward, one heading to the mountain country in the south, the other focused on a small city on the Volga River called Stalingrad. The unstoppable German offensive was pushing Soviet morale to a breaking point as the most pivotal battles on the Eastern Front were about to be fought on the streets of Stalingrad and in the Russian Steppe.

Inside you will find:

• Background on the German Army and its 1942 summer offensive in Russia, the Caucasus, and the pivotal Battle of Stalingrad.
• Instructions on how to build a Panzer III Tank Company, Panzer IV Tank Company, Panzergrenadier Company or Grenadier Company.
• A detailed painting guide.
• City fighting rules and two urban combat missions, placing you and your troops on the bloody streets of Stalingrad.
