The Battle of Moscow Description:
Overrun on the frontier, smashed at Minsk, encircled in the Ukraine, bottled up in Leningrad, the Red Army by October 1941 had virtually lost all hope of victory over the Nazis.
In a desperate attempt to stave off defeat, and with a cynical understanding of what drove the German war machine, the Russians massed the best of their forces before Moscow. These weren't much, and as events would show, the Germans would destroy the bulk of the remnants of the Russian Regular army in a fortnight when they attacked.
Yet they proved to be enough. Reserves from the East, greatly overrated later in strength though not in combat effectiveness; new armies designed along the principles of a nation in arms; a new obstinancy among the rank and file; and the weather would stop the Germans and almost destroy them. All these were to take part in the rescue.
The situation is ideal for a wargamer: a greatly superior offensive against a distant geographical objective protected by an increasingly effective defensive.
