Getting started

Unity of Command lets you replay the epic conflict that was the Stalingrad Campaign of World War II. In this turn-based game of strategy and cunning, observe how opportunity leads the German army to advance recklessly into the steppes of southern Russia. And as the story unfolds, join the Soviet campaign to repel the invaders... As these legendary battles play out on the hex board, the tension of decision making and difficulties of conducting operations on a massive scale emerge. Command armies and fronts in maneuver warfare, thrust and encircle, capture cities and cross continents; but never, ever forget to watch your supply lines. The Red Turn expansion ads a gigantic Soviet expansion centered on the Kursk campaign.

Hello all - thinking about trying this since there are some counter mods out now. What do I need to get started? Do red and Black turn require the base game to play? What is the base game, etc. Thanks!

Red Turn and Black Turn are expansions to Unity of Command (the base game). So you need to have Unity of Command to play those expansions.
You can find Unity of Command in here:

I have the base game through Steam. Can I get the two expansions from Matrix through this Steam download?

If you have a UoC Steam version it's better to buy the DLC's through Steam, as Steam version is not compatible with any other retailers version.
