Operation Citadel: Kursk 1943

This game has re-opened all the joys I derived from the hobby those many years ago. It has a wealth of theatres, colourful counters, easy to remember rules ... great game-play with the activations system, masses of HISTORICAL scenarios ... and I still get that boyish excitement when a new module is released and the buzz of opening the newly acquired box/book and looking at the counters/maps and scenarios.

Panzer Grenadier
Operation Citadel, Kursk 1943

In July 1943, history's greatest tank battle erupted when the German Army hurled 50 divisions at the Red Army around the city of Kursk, including 17 panzer and panzer grenadier divisions with over 3,000 tanks. Long aware of German plans, the Soviets were ready and waiting, with heavily fortified lines backed by 3,600 tanks of their own.

 

Operation Citadel: Kursk 1943 is a stand-alone game in the Panzer Grenadier series: You do not need any other game in the series to play any of the 80 scenarios. Design is by wargame veteran Mike Perryman, designer of our March on Leningrad and Siege of Leningrad Panzer Grenadier scenario supplements.

Forces include the German regular army, the Waffen SS, the Red Army of Workers and Peasants, and Soviet Guards. Pieces include masses of tanks: Lend-Lease Churchills and Grants, T-34 tanks in three models, KV-1 heavy tanks, T-70 light tanks and more. The Germans have Panther and Tiger tanks, Ferdinand and Marder assault guns, Goliath explosive tanks, Wespe and Hummel mobile artillery and lots more.

There are eight semi-rigid mapboards, the same type as those found in Eastern Front, created by Guy Riessen, who crafted the widely praised maps for Elsenborn Ridge.
