A real War in the East

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

A real War in the East

Post by Mappo »

Is there any chance for a future expansion that allows to start "War in the East" in 1939 with the invasion of Poland and Finland? May be two single scenarios or even a campaign from 1939 to 1945?

They are going to do a War in Europe, eventually.

Personally think WitE scale is too large to make Poland or Finnland interesting. Poland, Finnland, Greece, Yugoslavia, Crete, Africa, etc. might all be interesting in a different model, say battalion/regiment level resolution with smaller grid.

Sure Blubel, you're right, but probably it will take several years before we can have War in Europe. For me at least the scenario of the invasion of Finland could be done in a short time. Because the Finnish and the Russian armies already exist and I don't think it would be very difficult to convert the armies of 1941 in those of 1939. But the problem exists for the polish scenario, because the Polish army is not available and I have no idea how might be difficult to create an army from scratch.
Of course this is just my opinion
