About the game
What you do in a play session
With a super dynamic game engine, your objective is clear: collapse the Soviet Union against all odds. Whether orchestrating daring advances with your panzers eastward or mounting a fanatical resistance as the Red Army relentlessly pushes back, each game is a new story. The game explores a universe of historical 'what ifs?', allowing you to experience the ebb and flow of colossal battles in different ways with each play. It's the chance to rekindle your hobby with an innovative and fast-paced wargame that transforms history into an exciting and fresh narrative every time. The scale is epic: each unit represents 1 to 2 Axis Corps or 1 to 2 Soviet Armies, each hex covers 90 miles, and each turn equals one season (3 months) of real time. A full campaign can last 3 to 4 hours, but smaller scenarios get you into the action in just 35 minutes. It's the perfect choice for anyone looking for an engaging and highly replayable solo wargame.
