Description:
No Retreat: The Russian Front is
a new deluxe edition of the
two-player Victory Point Games 2008
CSR
Award Nominee wargame that retells the story of the titanic struggle
between the invading armies of Nazi Germany versus Communist Russia during WW2
at a player-friendly and manageable level of scope and difficulty.
This edition combines both the original game and its two extensions
(Na
Berlin
! and No
Surrender!) using deluxe components of “Twillight Struggle Deluxe Edition” quality.
With only 50 Army/Front sized counters for the Tournament game, and 70 for the
whole campaign, and with very low stacking, it’s a quick-playing yet realistic
affair that favours the strategic and offensive-minded player.
Each turn is alight with intriguing on-board challenges plus the
surprise of card hand Events as players vie to win in one of three different
ways.
It is a skillfully blended collation of classic hex-based wargaming
and modern card-driven simulations, No Retreat: The Russian Front stays
truly story-centric, providing the proper feel of sweeping maneuvers,
exploitation and encirclements across the vast steppes and forests of
Russia . With a
simple-yet-innovative economic model, players will also feel the growing might
and sophistication of the Russian’s Red Army, and the degradation of the
once-invincible German Wehrmacht,
over the epic four year sweep of time that this merciless campaign was
fought.
Neither side can afford the disgrace of yielding an inch of
ground to their hated foe, so your orders are: “No
Retreat!”
