Against The Odds 8: Fortress Berlin

Fortress Berlin and issue #8 of ATO

Fortress Berlin is a two-player tactical / operational simulation of the last major battle of World War II in Europe, the assault on Berlin. Map scale is approximately 500 yards (457 meters) to the hex. Each Game Turn represents around one day with ground units ranging in size from a company up to a division. The game features complete and comprehensive solitaire and multi-player rules. Players can assume the role of Hitler's underlings and squabble over who is "truer" and more devoted to the Fuehrer's cause. Or play out the rivalry between Zhukov and Konev to be the first to capture Berlin and present the city to Stalin. Optional rules explore the impact of Steiner's III SS Pz. Korps or Wenck's Twelfth Army intervening.
