The new project in the award-winning Theatre of War series depicts the initial (defensive) stage of the Kursk battle.
Theatre of War 2: Kursk 1943 There are two campaigns – German and Soviet: • Fiery Salient (forces of the Soviet 6th Guards and 1st Tank Army, July 5-10, 1943) • Operation Citadel (German division Grossdeutschland Kampfgruppe, July 5-10, 1943) Each campaign consists of up to 9 engagements and puts you in charge of a typical military unit from that period. Assuming the role of either the Russian or German battle group commander, acting under direct orders of division commanders Ivan Chistyakov or Valter Hoernlein, players will control their troops in historical scenarios on precisely reconstructed authentic battlefields. Each soldier and officer is a unique personality with characteristics and skills which can change during the campaign.
