Panzer Grenadier:
White Eagles
World War II began when German tanks rolled across the border
of Poland on September 1st, 1939. The Poles fought back courageously,
blunting several attacks, but the force of numbers and superior
weapons drove them back toward Warsaw.
On the 14th, a Polish counter-offensive broke down after
hard fighting, as the slower Polish infantry divisions found
themselves out-maneuvered by the faster German panzer formations.
Still fighting, the Polish armies fell back toward the southeast
to await their Allies' offensive, but on the 17th the Soviet
Union launched its own treacherous attack. Fighting would
continue into October, but the Polish state was doomed.
White Eagles is a 76-page book supplement
to the Panzer Grenadier series, focused
on the battles of September 1939, between
Poland's defenders and the German and Soviet
invaders. There are 40 new scenarios depicting
both sides on the attack, battles of cavalry
against cavalry, and even a tank battle or
two. Plus of course background articles on
the armies and weapons involved. This module
is not playable by itself, but requires ownership
of Eastern
Front and Road
to Berlin to enjoy all of the scenarios.
White Eagles includes 165 die-cut and mounted playing
pieces. Almost all of them represent Polish forces: tanks,
cavalry, armored cars, infantry, machine gun, mortar, anti-tank,
artillery and of course leaders. The book's format is the
same as our very popular Sinister
Forces and Fronte
Russo books.
