About the game
Operation Winter Storm is a scenario supplement providing twenty-two scenarios covering the attempts by 6 Panzer Division to advance across the bleak steppes towards Stalingrad and relieve von Paulus' trapped Sixth Army. Each scenario comes with a briefing for both sides, victory conditions and a map of the table. Two support options are given for each force as well as five Army lists to cover the forces involved. The scenarios are arranged into four chapters allowing the gamer to play them individually or as a series of linked games. This PDF supplement is designed to be both user and printer-friendly. Only the maps are in colour, keeping the ink usage low, and each side's briefing and game notes are on one sheet of paper, allowing the gamer to simply print out three sheets for each scenario and get playing.
