Operation Case Blue

On June 28th, 1942 the German High Command launched its summer offensive (Case
Blue) against the southern lines of the Soviet Union. 2 Army Groups of 10
Armies-nearly 35 Divisions and 2 full Air Corps, were unleashed against the
Soviet lines. It involved a two-pronged attack. One along the Axis right flank
driving to the Caucasus and the vital oil fields of Baku, and the other
against the left flank in the direction of Stalingrad and the Volga River. The
battle would rage for 2 months over several hundred square kilometers that
would take the German Army to the gates of Stalingrad itself.

Heroes of the Bitter Harvest is a module for the Lock ‘n Load Tactical series.
It features a fluid, impulse-based turns, squad-level, and individual heroics,
plus lots of armor and special rules to bring the fight for the southern
steppes of Russia to life. German Landser, Mechanized, and Armored formations
clash with Soviet Line, Guards, and NKVD Divisions. New units never before
seen in the Lock ‘n Load Tactical series are introduced.

The German Pz IV F and G along with the Marder II and StuG IIIF join the
battlefield as well as the Soviet Tachanka MG wagon, NKVD troops, and the IL2
Sturmovik. We also introduce a new leader type-the Incompetent Leader. The
scenarios range from the city of Voronezh and through Rostov, as far south as
the Caucasus Mountains. Into the footsteps of the Silk Road at Khulkhuta, up
and into the outskirts of Stalingrad itself.

The steppes of southern Russia await you!”
