Kursk: Burning Tigers – Storm Division

About Kursk: Burning Tigers – Storm Division

Several times a year, when we feel like it, the Golden Journal brings Gold Club members some fun extras for their Avalanche Press games. Our new-model Golden Journal features a “real” booklet, just like a small magazine, and a small set of die-cut, silky-smooth playing pieces. In January 1943, the German Army began to re-organize the shattered 78th Infantry Division on a new pattern, one based heavily on the experience of German and Italian units in North Africa. This new-model Storm Division would rely on more automatic weapons and fewer soldiers, with heavier allotments of support weapons and anti-tank guns, too. Infantry organizations – squads, platoons, companies and battalions – would be radically re-organized around this concept as well. The new organization would have its first test at Kursk. Golden Journal No. 49: Storm Division provides you with 24 new pieces adding Storm Platoons and additional support weapons to Kursk: Burning Tigers. You can use them in Burning Tigers (where the Storm Division appears in three scenarios) and in the five new scenarios included in the Journal. —description from the publisher
