Battle of Moscow

Battle of Moscow

Battle of Moscow 1941 is a turn based strategy game set on the European theater during the Second World War. From Joni Nuutinen: by a wargamer for the wargamers since 2011

Re-live the classic strategy game campaign in which the German Wehrmacht’s Panzer Armies pushed through the Red Army defense lines towards the Soviet Capital in 1941. Can you seize Moscow before fighting both the elements (mud, extreme cold, rivers) and the counterattacks by the Siberian and T-34 divisions grind the exhausted German forces into pieces?

“The Russian armies, having been driven back to Moscow, have now halted the German advance, and there is reason to believe that the German armies have suffered the greatest blow they have sustained in this war.”
— A speech Winston Churchill gave to the House of Commons on December 1, 1941

In order to be a victorious commander, you must learn to coordinate your attacks in two ways. First, as adjacent units give support to an attacking unit, keep your units in groups in order to gain local superiority. Secondly, it is not the best idea to use brute force when it is possible to encircle the enemy and cut off its supply lines instead.
