Kursk, the Battle for Prokhorovka

October 12 @ 9:00 am BST

Get ready to mount up and roll out in the Generals Outpost’s most ambitious Bolt Action Big Battle / Tournament yet.
Take part in a giant Kursk themed battle involving tank platoons and infantry divisions based upon the German offensive at Kursk (Operation Citadel).

One Huge table (11′ x 7′), two dice bags a whole day of fun, with the Russians trying to stop the German Blitzkrieg at Prokhorovka.

Unlike traditional tournaments where each player plays multiple opponents throughout the day we have arranged for the following (as each side will be working together as a team): Trophies for the top Axis and Allied commanders who wreck the most damage on the day as well as our famous “most cinematic action” trophy. We also have prizes for the top four players and the “most cinematic action” winner (These will be based on “Early War” which fits our coming battles for 2025).

2nd Edition Rules. The last event at our club to use them before we transition to 3rd Edition.
Models can be provided if you do not have any which match this period.

Entry is FREE for members – £10 for non members

6 German players confirmed, each with 1250pt armoured infantry armies (the tables are big, they need the transport) & 8 Russian players each with 1000pt armies.

As of 15/08/24 we have 2 places left (1 German & 1 Russian).

There is even a side game of Achtung Panzer tracking the main Bolt Action as German Panthers try to outflank the Russians.
