Russian Campaign, The (Deluxe 5th Edition)

The Deluxe 5th Edition of The Russian Campaign includes numerous rules changes by leveraging the expertise and experience of today’s leading experts and world renown players who have organized numerous TRC tournament events and online support sites. These changes reflect more than thirty years of player experience as well as outcomes from recent research. Examples of the former include additional balancing rules and providing more examples of play while examples of the latter include modifications to Archangel-based replacements and German Minor Ally restrictions. Players of earlier versions of TRC will be able to immediately play the 5th edition but the designer, publisher, and developers are steadfast in their belief that the current rules make it even easier for new players to quickly get into the game.

The end result is a perfect blend of the game’s classical, core system with key enhancements and clarifications driven by the best gaming minds in the world associated with this game who have invested literally thousands of hours over the years – in both playing and supporting the game.

And as expected from Consim Press, to properly honor both designer and key contributors, we have spared no expense in terms of production quality. This designer signature edition release features large 5/8 in. playing pieces and two full size game maps to capture the grand splendor of this classic design. All components have been beautifully rendered and painstakingly proofed to ensure top quality for both presentation value and usability to enhance play experience. We are also providing different treatment for all AFV units in the game – so you can pick from NATO symbol counters (for a classic look) or counters featuring AFV icons.

For your added gaming comfort, in addition to the smaller sized, half-sheet Player Aid Cards provided, we also give you the option to use our full-size, Player Aid Cards if you prefer not having to reference the game map to reference certain game charts and tables during play. Those who are eye sight challenged will appreciate this added convenience in not having to squint over to reference certain charts and tables on the game map itself during game play.

While the standard game represents the “purest form” of this classic design and final say as John Edwards intended, the game is replete with optional rules to increase historicity.
