It depends on what “work” means – in other words, on whether players would consider a Kursk scenario appealing. Conceptually, Kursk would be similar to A&A D-Day (minus the water) in the sense that the battle was fundamentally a frontal assault on a heavily-defended static position, and similar to A&A Battle of the Bulge in the sense that it would involve ground forces driving into enemy lines, but different from both games in the sense that from the German point of view Kursk was a pincer movement aimed at pinching off a salient, and that from the Russian point of view it was a two-stage offensive-defensive battle. Personally I think it has good potential to make an interesting game, if it’s designed properly.

Tigerman by chance did you try using the German and Russian trucks for running supplys to front lines and the Russian Gaz-60 mech for carrying fuel? Would need to paint mech ones for Germany. Use the Gaz-60 until coach maybe comes out with a open bed truck. Just ordered some Gaz-60’s from coach. Going to find something that resembles barrels for fuel and look at n-scale for trains to see if they have barrels that small that can fit into trucks. Could also use supply tokens from B of B game under trucks for now.

Is there a setup for advance units? It wasn’t in my download and I was wondering were the set up for advance units are such as SP Guns and Tank Destroyers.
-
Looks like you got to buy them starting on turn 1. Scanning rules now. Ya you got supply and oil tokens involved and trucks carrying up to 4 of these at one time. Inf, art, supply tokens. Man this looks awesome. Everythings involved like a advanced global game, but with more in depth things on small close combat. Generals in game too!
-
On page 10 of the rules states advance set up and on the set up chart that you down load it says basic. I was just wondering if there was another set up chart.
-
Looks like the grey high lighted stuff is on page 10, 11 and 12. Stuff thats high lighted got to be the advance stuff. For setup chart don’t know if there is one. Maybe its on the map. Ya Jabo I see what you mean. No setup for advance pieces.
-
Tigerman is not quite through with the advanced setups. They will be released after a bit when setups are finalized and playtesting is done.
