Blitzkrieg '41

Published 1989

Blitzkrieg `41 is a two-player strategic level wargame of the German invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941. The game includes a 20 page rulebook, 200 counters, and a 22" x 34" mapsheet which contains a map plus charts and tables for both players. Victory conditions are quite extensive (over a page of rules) and, because of the great number of draws that the game will produce (the historical result), the designer recommends playing multiple games for total points.
