Stalingrad: Hitler's Highwater Mark
No land battle of WWII cries out for more attention in PG than the crushing of the 6th Army..Yet it has been somewhat ignored. Why? I think it has to do w the perception that wide scale urban battles don't work in PG. Au contraire! We just haven't tried very hard.
Operation Mars, Italia defeats, Red Warriors; these battles were only part of the Stalingrad campaign. But what about the battle where the 6th drove to the city? The game would have 50 scenarios at least. The time frame would go from dry August 1942 on the Steppes to Feb. 2,1943 = Surrender! I would like to read Glantz' exhaustive 3 part history to get an idea for things. I can't say I know much more outside of Esposito's Atlas of WWII.
Feedback?
