Flames of War WW2: Eastern Front - Mid-War Forces

Manufacturer: Battlefront Miniatures

The War in the East

Despite being thrown back from the gates of Moscow in the winter offensive, the Germans were back on the attack in the summer of 1942 with their Hungarian and Romanian allies, advancing deep into Russia and setting up the epic confrontation at Stalingrad. Meanwhile up north, the Finnish army heroically held off repeated Soviet attacks into their territories.

Then, as winter hit, the Soviets counterattacked, encircling whole armies in the face of determined resistance. In the summer of 1943, the Germans struck back as massed tank formations clashed, intent on destroying the Red Army of Kursk.
