- Material: CLASSIC PAPER
In the tradition of Richard Borg's D-DAY LANDINGS expansion for Memoir 44, designer Carlos Paz presents us with this new Memoir '44 expansion on the Eastern Front.
CONCRETE HELL: THE BATTLE FOR STALINGRAD
Three (3) years in the making.
Release date: 9 May 2023 (Victory Day)
These are six Extended Breakthrough (13x23 hexes deep) maps that link together to allow you to play the Battle for Stalingrad from the Grain Elevator and Railway Station No 2 (map 1) in the southern end of the metropolis to the Felix Dzerzhinsky Tractor Factory (map 6) in the northern part of the city. This expansion may be played by one person (solo) or by multiple players, eg. classic two (2) player mode, and it allows up to six (6) players per side for a combined total of twelve (12) players in epic six map mode. Use your battle wits to see if you have what it takes to survive combat in the bloodiest battle in human history. Make sure to aid your fellow comrades as much as you can because in Stalingrad no commander survives on their own. If you are playing for the Axis camp it will take a cohesive group of leaders to capture the city and secure access to the mighty Volga River, the backbone of Russia. If you are playing for the Allies you will need to stall your opponent long enough in order to encircle and defeat the Axis forces.
You're on your own, gentlemen, it's time to rewrite or relive history.

NOTES:
Regarding the three material options available:
Carlos Paz's preferred choice is DELUXE VINYL, which offers the highest quality. The second option is VIVID PVC, which is also a great choice. Both DELUXE VINYL and VIVID PVC are 100% water resistant and highly recommended for their durability and performance.
The third option, Classic Paper, is available but it's important to note that it does not offer the same level of durability as DELUXE VINYL and VIVID PVC. While Classic Paper is an option, it cannot be directly compared to the superior qualities of DELUXE VINYL and VIVID PVC in terms of water resistance and overall performance.
The 3D tokens, models, and miniatures featured in our product images are for display purposes only, and are not included with your purchase. Said images come from the original setup which we used for play testing and design. Three years in the making, three years play testing! Loads of fun!
This product is an expansion for the Memoir' 44 tabletop game.
At least one original copy of Memoir '44 and one copy of the Eastern Front expansion are required to play, as well as the Winter Wars expansion (if you wish to use the Breakthrough Command deck). The Equipment Pack expansion is also recommended, though not required. More copies of the base game and expansions are required if you want to play a Double, Triple or Six-Map battle.
When opening the parcel, take great care and proceed slowly. Inside the tube, you will find the maps. On the exterior surface of the cylinder, there is an envelope containing the special rules and reinforcements table. Gently remove the envelope from the tube's exterior, ensuring that you handle it delicately to avoid damaging its contents.
