Command turn-based battles across a vast WWII Eastern Front map spanning 43x34 hexes of European Russia and nearby areas. This strategy simulation employs a double-impulse system for movement and combat, letting players handle army- and corps-level units from German, Russian, and allied forces. Features like overrun attacks, adjustable shock levels, leaders, headquarters, partisans, workers, and tactical air support add depth, while supply, weather, terrain, rail, and sea movement shape every decision.
Reinforcements arrive on schedule, with undo options for movement and retreats, plus displays for ranges in air attacks and paratroop drops. Play solo against AI, team up in two-player co-op on one computer, via local network, or by email. Fast multiple-unit combat resolution, game logs for analysis, and save-reload functions suit dedicated simulation fans who value historical campaigns and flexible replay tools.
