Bolt Action: Campaign - Stalingrad (Eng)

This campaign book helps all wargamers recreate the incredible battles between the German Wehrmacht and the Soviet Red Army for control over the region between the Don and Volga rivers - ultimately centered around the city of Stalingrad.

This six-month campaign included some of the war's fiercest fighting, with each side losing hundreds of thousands of men and culminating in the encirclement and eventual destruction of the German Sixth Army.

While this book provides a historical overview of the Stalingrad campaign, its primary purpose is to offer new scenarios, rules, and inspiration for all wargamers so they can bring this bitter struggle to life on the tabletop.

This book covers the southern region of the Eastern Front from August 1942 to February 1943, including:

• The crossing of the Don River
  
• The race to the Volga River by German mobile divisions
  
• Soviet counterattacks against the German encirclement of Stalingrad
  
• The battles for control of the city of Stalingrad
  
• Operation Uranus and the subsequent encirclement of the German Sixth Army
  
• Operation Winter Tempest: Manstein's attempt to break the encirclement of the Sixth Army
