Clash of Arms ATO Ground Annual 2022: Stalingrad: Verdun on the Volga

The single bloodiest battle in history?
It was most certainly the strategically decisive battle of WW2. After Stalingrad, it was only a matter of time for Hitler's Germany. But if the Wehrmacht had won there, who can say what the outcome might have been?

Now, Against the Odds Magazine has secured the rights to reprint the classic Stalingrad: Verdun on the Volga from its sister division, Last Stand Games, with a situation every gamer knows, and a game engine most gamers have experienced...but both offered in a totally new, ATO Annual Magazine (ziplock) format. (We'll call it "SVoV" for short.)

With a setup time of less than 15 minutes, but a large, double map-board, players will have plenty of chances to try new approaches and come back for more. The original three very different scenario situations gave players the option to go for a game that might be complete in 3-4 hours or one that will probably take 8 hours, although there are VP checks along the way that could shorten things suddenly.
