Description

A Victory Lost: Crisis in Ukraine 1942-1943 is a gripping wargame that drops you into the intense mobile fighting between Axis and Soviet forces in the southwestern USSR. As one of two players, you'll take on the role of either the Soviet forces aiming to trap and eliminate the Axis forces in full retreat from the Caucasus, or the Axis forces desperate to withdraw and restore the front line with a counterattack. Every decision counts, as the slightest mistake could turn victory into a rout. With a playtime of 360 minutes, this game is designed for those familiar with board games, and its normal complexity rules make it easy to learn. The game's mechanics, including a chit-pull system and dice rolling, add an extra layer of excitement and challenge to the gameplay. As you navigate the hexagon grid, you'll need to use your strategic skills to outmaneuver your opponent and emerge victorious.
