Graviteam Tactics: Dawn of Blau
The first DLC for Graviteam Tactics Mius Front was released this week. This DLC is about the kickstart of Operation Blau and focuses in an area near the Oskol River.
A Stug 33 Ausf B ready for action at Verhnyaya Lubyanka.
The new DLC requires the original Gaviteam Tactics Mius Front and is priced at US $ 12.74. Players get a new area of operations (24 square Km) that includes the village of Krasnyi Pahar, Verhnyaya Lubyanka and some of the areas near the Yutanovka crossing.
The Germans (red icons) need to encircle the Soviet troops (blue icons) before they withdraw west. The tricky part for the Germans is doing it while being pounded by heavy Soviet counter-attacks.
A clearer briefing map, showing the Germans as blue icons and the Soviets as red icons.
As a player commanding the Germans, you can always count on the prodigious amount of Soviet artillery falling in your positions.

13 Days card game gets reviewed by Wargamers Needful Things
"I would love to be able to write this review without referring to Twilight Struggle, but as the designers themselves heralded it as Twilight Struggle [hereafter TS] in 45 minutes that's not going to be likely.
There are plenty of other reasons too. Victory determined by who has gained most Prestige at game end, a Defcon track and the possibility of a player losing by triggering nuclear war; playing a hand of cards each turn and each card playable for either its events or placing influence; an abstract board to represent the areas to be influenced. The Cuban Missile Crisis - one card in TS : a whole game in 13 Days. Nuff said - mini-TS or TS-lite? Thankfully, it's better and worse than that................"
