The War in the East

Pyotr hesitated. Three deep breaths, a muttered curse, and he risked a quick glance around the carcass of the huge press he sheltered behind. Panting, he rested against the shattered machinery. The Germans were still there. Good. No need to hunt them down then.

Grigoriy looked at him expectantly, smiling as Pyotr nodded. Checking the magazine of his PPSh submachine-gun one more time, he glanced along the line. Everyone was ready, grenade in hand.

Another deep breath, then he shoved himself to his feet, swinging his submachine-gun to line up with the Germans as four grenades arced through the air towards the. As the first grenade exploded, Pyotr poured a long burst into the three grouped on the left.

Pushing around the ruined press, he ducked after his comrades, shouting 'Urrah!' as he slid to a halt amongst the German bodies. Another few metres of the Motherland cleared of the invaders. Only a thousand kilometres to go!

Despite being thrown back from the gates of Moscow in the winter offensive, the Germans were back on the attack in the summer of 1942. The Red Army launched offensive after offensive to throw the invaders back, but nothing could stop them from overrunning southern Russia and reaching the Volga River at Stalingrad. In the bitter street fighting of autumn, the Red Army bled the Germans dry. Then, as winter set in, they launched another round of offensives that regained all that they had lost.

Inside you will find:

• Background on the Soviet Army, the pivotal Battle of Stalingrad, and the 1942 offensives to cut off the Germans at Rahev and Stalingrad.
• Instructions on how to build a Mixed Tank Battalion, T-34 Tank Battalion, M3 Lee Tank Battalion, Rifle Battalion, or Hero Rifle Battalion.
• A detailed painting guide.
• City fighting rules and two urban combat missions, placing you and your troops on the bloody streets of Stalingrad.
