Thunder in the East (Last Chance)

Manufacturer: Victory Point Games

Thunder in the East is the first volume of the Frank Chadwick's ETO series of strategic-level wargames covering all of World War II in Europe. It is a two-player (although it is easily played solitaire as most wargames are, and it is great for small teams) strategic-level WWII East Front wargame from legendary game designer Frank Chadwick.

Thunder in the East puts you in command of the great battles raging across the entire front line in six meaty scenarios (of 8 to 13 turns each) and a full Campaign Game that can be commenced or ended at each scenario date. The game scale features Axis Corps and Soviet Army units, with each turn representing one to two weeks (depending on the season) and each hex on the map is 30 miles across.

The sweeping maneuvers, the desperate defenses, the front line parry-and-thrust, and the real history of the war on the Russian Front plays deftly across the map in a wargame designed and tested for the perfect player comfort level. Years of development has shown us that Thunder in the East is a truly fun "classic" style wargame that you will love to play, study, share, and enjoy - one you will keep reaching for on your shelf and will enjoy for decades.
