Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

Railroad repair

Post by mauser »

I am playing The Road to Smolinsk scenario and I notice that my railroad repair units are not doing anything. I thought that rr conversion was was done automaticaly. Can someone please explain how to use the rr repair units.
Also I am also wondering why the city of Brest Livosk falls in turn one when historically it took the Germans six weeks to take it.

Maybe you used more resources in your attack than the Germans actually used??

The fortresses were all captured along with the lines of communication by 30 June. Sporatic fighting by small groups of holdout Soviet defenders continued for several weeks but control of the ground was firmly in the hands of the Germans.

As far as the RR. Check out page 195 in the [Light] manual. You must manually move those RR units and click on the RRV inside the unit box. They must have a contiguos line to a friendly RR hex
