Wintergewitter - Ride of the Valkyrie

The doomed German soldier in the Stalingrad Kessel had one hope: Erich von Manstein. The legendary general had a reputation the size of a King Tiger, although those were not to be found on the battlefield yet. As men huddled in the icy cold, beat back one attack after another along the Volga, panzer engines were warmed. Cranked into life. Across the frozen Steppe would come the rescue. Or would it? Operation Wintergewitter is the theme and YOU will experience it on fresh terrain. Are you ready?

Despite YEARS of tactical-level simulations, with various board and map permutations, the openness of the Russian Steppe is still unexplored terrain. Longer LOSs, longer shoots, and just having the vantage point of watching Ivan .. not to mention those state-of-the-art early T-34 tanks... heading your way as you rub some feeling back into your icy hands and prepare to ram one more AP round into your PaK 38.
