World at War #17 Leningrad What if Manstein Attacked? Decision Games

Description: Little Big Wars Store Contact Little Big Wars Follow Little Big Wars World at War #17 Leningrad '41 Leningrad ’41: What If Manstein had Attacked? (L’41), designed by Joseph Miranda, is a two-player alternative history wargame of intermediate complexity that simulates a hypothetical German attempt to seize the city of Leningrad in late July through August 1941. The assumption is Manstein, rather than pausing for two weeks as he did historically, simply charged ahead into the city immediately upon crossing the Luga River. To control complexity and present an overall-force-commander’s-view of the battle, the game uses a tactically scaled map and units of maneuver coupled with an operationally scaled game turn length. The German player is generally on the offensive, trying to clear the Soviet defending force from the city prior to the end of the game. L’41 uses the system originally created for our earlier published Manila’45 game. Each game turn equals three days. Each hexagon on the map represents 0.3 miles (0.5 km) from side to opposite side. The units of maneuver for the Germans are mainly battalions, while those for the Soviets range from battalions to regiments and brigades. Thus each unit may represent anywhere from 100 to 5,000 men and their equipment. Special rules cover such things as: fog of war, replacements, reinforcements, defensive fire, indirect fire, combat air support, command control, leaders, fanaticism, gunboats, the cruiser Aurora, the Komsomol, the metro, and optional German airborne assault. The turn sequence is as follows. I. German Player Turn A. German Replacement & Reinforcement Phase B. German Air Strike Phase C. German Movement & Soviet Defensive Phase D. German Offensive Fire Phase II. Soviet Player Turn A. Soviet Reinforcement Phase (skip on Game Turn 1) B. Soviet Movement & German Defensive Fire Phase C.
