Berlin looks like the final statement on the Eastern Front for Flames of War (until new, interesting battles are explored or Version 4 drops!).

Special Rules
Notice that in this book there are no restrictions at all on force selection. Pick any HQ, then pick any unit in any box, regardless of symbol present. This makes for a very interesting set of options! This could be missed, as the only indicator is the lack of usual language around the force organization chart that is easy to skip. To verify that this was indeed the case, we asked Wayne Turner, who confirmed.
Battlegroup Berlin – No Kampfgruppe German special rule for these guys. Also, there is no Reich Divided.
Enjoy the War- Instead of rolling a Platoon Morale check, roll for each team – Confident teams fight on with a 3+, and Fearless teams fight on with a 2+. If you get down to a Sole Survivor check, you fail automatically. No re-rolls allowed for EtW, and Reluctant teams do not use this special rule…"
