@adin: I really don't want to put another date out. But we're
really close, otherwise I wouldn't mention it in the first place. So... soon
@nikdav: OK, let's leak something about the scenarios right now...
Stalingrad Campaign ends in March of 1943, with Manstein's counterattack (
3rd Kharkov) reaching up to about Belgorod. That's when the Kursk bulge got its final shape. This new expansion kicks off in July 1943, with
Zitadelle which is a German scenario (there are only two of those, and no German campaign). We don't have any what-if scenarios for a hypothetical German victory in Zitadelle, but I'm sure with the scenario editor, the community will offer their ideas about that.
Soviet campaign starts with
Rumyantsev and covers the Soviet 1943/44 campaign to liberate the Ukraine in 8 scenarios. After Rumyantsev it goes to
Lower Dnieper,
Kiev-Zhitomir, etc. Two large scenarios in the middle of Ukraine fighting will let you create the
Korsun Pocket,
Hube's Pocket and the 6th Army (again!) pocket around Nikolaev. That arm of the campaign then branches to Romania (
2nd Iassy-Kishinev) and Hungary (
Debrecen).
Next summer, it all starts again on
June 22nd, 1944 with
Bagration, then
Lvov-Sandomierz... and then all the way to
Berlin. Anyway, I'm not going to spill
everything right now, but hopefully I shed some light on things for those of you eager to get your hands on the expansion.
Cheers!
