his book contains four [Army Lists, for bastlegroups constructed from four different types of divisions, There are two for the Germans - Panzer divisions and infantry divisions, and two for the Russians - tank corps and rifle divisions, These are the principle organisations that fought the Battle ‘of Kursk, and the character of the parent unit will be apparent in your battlogroup. The Panzer division {always popular) has the majority of the tanks, but an infantry division can also have some tank support, but will mostly be relying upon its infantry and artillery. Also, when on the defensive, players will find that an infantry (or rifle) division is well ‘worth considering, as these have access to lots of prepared defences and thus can be far more effective fighting on the defensive than their tank-heavy counterparts, Each Army List is organised into ten. different types of units, divided into THE ARMYLI two halves. The first has clled Front Line Assets. Ths consists ofthe principle combat units ofthe bate- r0up, its infontry, tanks and anf, along with its battlefield command and any prepared defences. ‘The second half is called Support Assets, sacond line and specialist ‘units which lend aid to the front line. These include such specialists ce units, Engineers, Logistics, Additional Fire Support and Specialist Units. as Reconnaissa ‘Support Assets can only be taken by first including Front Line assets, For leach Front Line asset i your batile-group you are allowed to purchase a unit froma Support section.

The details are covered below, and again in the ‘Army Lists themselves, STS FRONT LINE ASSETS Forward Headquarters ‘This is the battlegroup commander (that’s you) and any specialist units which are attached to him, such as Communications units, The Forward Headquarters can sometimes be a fighting unit right up to operating in the tank, whilst attached to it might be radio vehicles, messengers or other sub-commanders. For each Forward Headquarters ‘unit in your battlegroup you can include a single unit chosen from cither Logistics, Specialist units or Additional Fire Support Infantry ‘These are the ground-pounders, the squadls and platoons of fg infantry, which might be directly supported by infantey-bore heavy weapons like machine guns or lighter mortars iS For each infantry unit in your battle- {group you can also include single ‘unit chosen from either Engineers, Reconnaissance or Specialist units ‘Tanks ‘The front line armous, squadrons of the main fighting vehicles, including, self-propelled guns as well as the tanks For each Tank unit in your Daitlegroup you can also include single unit from cither Engineers, Logistics, Reconnaissance or Specialistoy BATTLEGROUP + KuKSK lie Axtillery. ‘These are the guns dedicated to supporting your own battlegroup. ‘They might be deployed in close ‘support, as actual models on the table, or abit further to the rear as off-table support.
