Sequence of play is as follows: Germans begin first, 1.Reinforcement Phase; 2.Supply Determination Phase; 3.Movement Phase; 4.Combat Supply Determination Phase; 5.Combat Phase; 6.Mechanized Movement Phase; followed by the Soviet Player performing these same phases. NOTE: in some of the later scenarios, the Germans "skip" their entire FIRST turn, thereby allowing the Soviets to start the game.

There are many details on the map including the German Demyansk Pocket. Leningrad forts are represented. Supply level is recorded as units in the city have to trace supply to it.

The game scale given is: 10.5 Km across a hex, Regiment/Division/Corps level but NO Historical designations, for Units, and each turn equals 10 Days.

Published as a magazine game in JagdPanther #13 (Apr 1976) and has now been re-released in PDF format by Amarillo Design Bureau.
