Panzer
Grenadier: March on Leningrad
In the summer of 1941, German panzer spearheads
pushed towards Leningrad, Cradle of the Revolution.
Adolf Hitler declared the city's capture to
be the leading objective of Operation Barbarossa,
the June 1941 sneak attack on the Soviet Union.
Desperate to stop them and preserve the city
of Peter the Great, the Red Army repeatedly
made valiant efforts to stop them, and just
as often, the Germans rolled over and around
them.
By
August the city had been isolated from the
rest of the Soviet Union, but its defenders
refused to yield. For 900 days they held against
savage Nazi bombardments, writing an epic
chapter in the story of the Great Patriotic
War.
March on Leningrad is a supplement
based on the German drive to capture Leningrad,
and the Soviet defense of the approaches.
Mike
Perryman has designed ten scenarios, or separate
game situations, based on battles that took
place south of Leningrad between June and
September 1941.
This module is not playable by itself, but
requires ownership of our Eastern
Front and Road
to Berlin games and Red
Warriors and Sinister
Forces supplements.
