This handbook covers the Western and Eastern Fronts during 1944. The Western Front. As 1944 began, the British and American forces in Great Britian were preparing for their return to France in the D-Day landings. At the same time the Fifth and Eighth Armies in Italy looked towards Rome, planning the battles that would capture the first Axis capital to fall in the war. "Festung Europa" contains Intelligence Briefings on the German, British, and US forces involved in these dramatic campaigns to liberate Europe. These give you everything you need to field these forces in a "Flames of War" game, including the up-gunned M4A1 Sherman (76mm) and Firefly VC tanks, the speedy M18 Hellcat GMC tank-destroyer and Cromwell tank, the deadly Churchill Crocodile flame-tank, and the M16MGMC with its quadruple .50 cal machine guns. The Eastern Front. While the western Allies planned, the Red Army was fighting the brutal battles that would take them from Leningrad in the north and the Dnepr River in the south, to the borders of Poland and Romania, clearing the Motherland of the Fascist invaders. "Festung Europa" contains Intelligence Briefings on the Soviet and German forces fighting the epic battles for the Ukraine and Western Russia. These give you everything you need to field these forces in a "Flames of War" game. In these battles the Red Army fielded the up-gunned T-34/85 medium tank and the powerful IS-2 heavy tank with its 122mm gun capable of penetrating any German tank, even the new Konigstiger! On the other side, all of the German equipment that appeared at Kursk is now in full production and available in quantity.
