The Russian Campaign: Deluxe 5th Edition

A strategic-level simulation of the German invasion of the Soviet Union in World War II. Players command Axis and Soviet forces across two full-size maps, managing multiple impulse movement, rail and sea transfers, encirclements, HQs and leaders, air power, reinforcements and replacements. The game supports five historical scenarios and a full 25-turn campaign, with rules for paratroops, partisans, fortresses, weather, and numerous optional and variant rules drawn from decades of play. Components include counters, scenario and order-of-battle displays, player aids, and a full rules booklet to facilitate setup and play.
