We are back again to continue with our plays by Vassal and ACTS.
After a few weeks deciding what to play and reading some rulebooks, and with Alberto (Titokiza) under a few meters of snow and blizzard skiing in the Alps, we have decide that our souls are ready for a hard fight in Russia. So we have chosen to play Ted Raicer's game WWII: Barbarossa to Berlin published by GMT Games.
This is somewhat like the WWII version of Paths of Glory. We have read the rulebook and tried to understand the differences with PoG. The special rules for Mechanized units and the not-so-critical supply system seemed to be the main issues to catch. We will see how many wrong rules we will apply. Initial strategies however seems to be clear. Axis must push Barbarossa as far as possible, keeping supply lines sure whereas Soviet should exchange terrain for time, waiting for better times to counterattack. How to apply this general lines with your cards will be the main challenge.
