MMP: Panzer Battles, 11th Panzer on The Chir River, Boardgame

Panzer Battles: 11th Panzer on the Chir River, is a Standard Combat Series (SCS) game by Multi-Man Publishing and covers the classic mobile defensive Chir River Battles of the German 11th Panzer Division against the culminating point spearheads of Soviet Operation Uranus. The Soviets have successfully entombed the Stalingrad Pocket and are in the process of locking down the pocket even harder. The game covers all this swirling mobile action in turn representing two to three days and a hex scale of 500 meters. Units are companies to regiments. Play is highly interactive (the only way to show its mobile nature) using a chit pull system by formation. The rules are a continued adaptation of the system shown in Bastogne: Screaming Eagles Under Siege 18-27 Dec '44, It Never Snows, and Day of Days: The Invasion of Normandy 1944. Game Scale: Game Turn: 2-3 days Hex: 547 yards / 500 meters Units: Company to Regiment
