Description

Fronte Russo is part of the Panzer Grenadier tactical game system. It covers the Italian contribution to the war against Communism.  Although the Italian soldier is much maligned for his performance, the Italians could and did fight well when well led.  Among their notable successes includes a cavalry charge against an armored unit, and winning!  Fronte Russo includes 41 scenarios featuring the Italians, including their history making charge.

Panzer Grenadier is an award winning game system that covers tactical warfare in World War II. Each unit represents a platoon of infantry, weapons or vehicles. Each hexagon represents 200 meters of terrain. Each turn represents 15 minutes of time. PG features an interactive turn system, so a player may not get to do everything he wants to do before his opponent gets to counter move.

The Panzer Grenadier system is vast, with many modules available. Each module focuses on a particular theme and provide counters, maps and scenarios to play. There are two types of modules, the core games and the supplements. Core games are complete by themselves, with everything needed to play. Supplements expand on the core modules, bringing new scenarios and unit types to the game, but require one or more core module to play.

Fronte Russo is not complete by itself. Ownership of Eastern Front and Road to Berlin is required to play.
