World At War 85: Storming the Gap – Storm and Steel Second Wave (2019)

Giới thiệu

Storm and Steel Second Wave is a fast-paced action-packed expansion featuring West German forces defending their country against Czech and Soviet invaders. Basing these expansions on the action and forces from the novel, Storm and Steel Second Wave – the Final Line adds TWO NEW COUNTER SHEETS and THREE NEW MAPS to your World At War 85 forces.

Now you can fight using the platoons and batteries of the Czech Army as they charge into Southwest Germany heading for the Rhine and the French border. You will also find additional West German forces to try and slow or stop them! And you get TWO COMPLETE NATIONAL UNIT TABLES to go with these additional fighting forces, so you can design your own scenarios with them, or add them to units from the main game, Storming the Gap.

The three new maps will give you the experience of fighting your WaW85 forces in the close-in terrain of southwestern Germany, south, and east of Regensburg: an entirely different battlefield “feel.” You will fight at knife-fight ranges on maps of a real section of the hilly and heavily forested areas there, and adapted specifically for World At War 85 play. The three SUMMER MAPS of the six maps herein, when configured in a specific pattern, display the actual fighting area surrounding Grafling, West Germany. The other six are WINTER VERSIONS, where any line of sight benefits of obscuring crops of cultivated terrain are gone and wilted, and so presents a whole different battle arena. The maps have ever so slight adjustments that also make them GEOMORPHIC, and so fully compatible with any other map in the World At War 85 series of games. Just line up the short edge or long edge of any of these maps to any other map in the series to create your own Forward Edge of the Battle Area.

SIX SCENARIOS ARE INCLUDED, depicting actions described in or implied by the narrative in the Novel Storm and Steel. You can fight West German Captain Mohr’s 1st company of the 244th Mountain Tank Battalion yourself and see if you can do better than in the novel!
