EastFront: The War in Russia, 1941-45

Two-player block wargame simulating the conflict between Germany and the Soviet Union on the Eastern Front, 1941–1945. Players manage production, supply, command control and maneuver, using wooden blocks on a large cardstock map of Eastern Europe and Russia. Blocks stand upright to provide fog of war and record multi-step unit strength by rotation. Several scenarios cover major phases of the war, and gameplay emphasizes line breaking, positional play and logistics rather than tactical micro-management. This stand-alone title uses the Columbia Games block system and can integrate with the broader Front series for a wider European campaign.
