Each of the nine game turns equals one week, from IV June through IV August. Units of maneuver are corps (and static “fortified localities”) for the Germans and armies for the Soviets. The latter’s great airpower advantage is represented in the form of 10 “air armies.” There are 176 large-size unit-counters included, most read more
