Good news!

Any chance that any Post WWII conflicts be covered by a book?

we do plan post WW2 supplements in the future

Just wondering
Amy use of the Glantz book Barbarossa Derailed?--by which I mean the savage Soviet counter attacks, their huge losses, and the small but irreplaceable losses to the German, or the "Eastern kilometers"-the roads that kick up the dust and dirt that fouls the tank and truck engines forcing halts in the advance, the expenditure of ammo and fuel that also forces halts, waiting for the supply to catch up, the Soviets escaping the encirclements since the German infantry is not motorized, and the surprises of the T 34 and the KV along with the narrow tank tracks on the German tanks that made it difficult to navigate--and all of this before the Kiev encirclement much less the rain--Glantz's stats show the Germans were at between fifty and seventy percent of strength in late Sept despite battlefield repairs--no replacements
The Soviets win by killing only a few Germans each encounter as the Germans cannot replace, moving away from their bases in Poland
On the back of the Command Decision 3 rules are two photos--the upper of the model panzer and the lower of a wartime photo of walking/horse drawn German artillery--the upper the wargamer's fantasy of a fully mechanized German force, the lower of the grim reality
So, is this Battlegroop a game, or will you claim some historical simulation based mostly on the paint job and an order of battle

I think, as its a wargame, its a game.

RDonBurn I think "Battlegroup" is the name of the publishers rather than a description of the rules scale
