Barbarossa PBEM campaing

[Von Bismarck]

Hello fellow commanders!!

With the inspiration from Klanx's E.T two crazy guys decided to create a huge new project.
BARBAROSSA PBEM CAMPAING

This project was born in the last months of last year and demanded a lot of dicussions, researches and experimentations to figure how it could be presented to you all.
The main idea as the title suggests is to recreate the invasion of Soviet Union by the axis forces at June 41.
The campaing will cover the entire period from June till Typhoon operation against Moscow in december 41, at first glance.
It will be played with SPWWW2 ver 3.5.
There will be two tourney masters, one who will act as the OKH and will coordinate the axis players and the other depicting the STAVKA for the soviet players.
the guys in charge of both positions will be :

Von Bismarck - OKH
Jadpanther - STAVKA

GAME CONCEPTS:

For this campaing players will fight with historical units that took part in the battle.
All divisions with their historical designations and quite historical OOBs are included from SS to Guards, Rumanian,Hungarian, Slovakian..
All divisions will be represent by its regimental equivalent which means that real war time figures were dived by 3.
An Infantry division i.e will be deployed on the field as an infantry regiment and a tank or Pz div as one Pz reg with his attached mech infantry units.
There will be two types of MAPS: Strategical and tactical.
For the strategic map we decided to use the HoI (Heart of Iron) game which means that the campaing will be developed around its provinces as showed by the images below :







For this campaing, casualties will play a major role since replacments for both men and material will follow the concept from EUROPA SCORCHED EARTH for industrial capacity and manpower.
All background work regarding production, types of units and replacments will be done by both OKH and STAVKA which means the players will have only to fight themselves at the field

For such task, a set of ww2 maps are being done depicting as quite close as possible real regions of the provinces which means that you will be able to the baltic coast through Brest - Litovsk, the pripet marshes till the black sea coast!

For further details those who are interested in join this campaing may just drop a mail to Jadpanther for the russian side or to me for the axis one.

Cheers!
