V3 Bolt Action event – Barbarossa

To fight for prizes, promote the game and venue, and
to have FUN! This is a themed event in JUL ’41; Operation Barbarossa the invasion of
Russia. It is a 2-round event with tiered lists from 1250 (20 dice limit) and 750 (12 dice
limit). Participants will match up as either an Axis player or a Russian player in the
first month of the operation.
There will be up to 10 tables that will cover geography of the central Russia.
Commanders will have to fight in cities, railyards, forests, and pastures with
farmhouses. Additional victory points are awarded for creating a platoon/company
based (loosely) on a real unit that fought in the above theater at the time mentioned
(encouragement for players to study history and then try to re-enact it as well as
paying homage to those veterans). Finally, each Commander is allowed to purchase
minefields and/or a veteran tank crewman (Tank War concept) if they desire to add
additional reality or flexibility to their company.
The venue and other sponsors donate funds for prize support to encourage
maximum attendance and FUN!! At least half the prize support is purchased from
Warlord Games.
