This is a stand-alone game.
Combat! Volume 4: Eastern Front is a solitaire game of man-to-man combat on the Eastern Front in WWII. The player can command a squad of German or Soviet soldiers in various engagements. This game includes the all-new Series Rules, which have been clarified and streamlined from the original rules, and now enable players to control either nationality in this game.
There are 11 tense scenarios across 4 full-size maps ranging from forest partisan warfare, to urban fighting in Stalingrad, to desperate battles on the steppes. A comprehensive random scenario generator further expands the possibilities and will create a limitless supply of unique scenarios. In addition, the included campaign game allows the player to lead a squad of men through 10 battles.
Other new features include:
- Soviet and German OOBs contrast the crude but determined Red Army with the efficient Wehrmacht.
- City fighting with demolition charges, factories, upper stories, fortress buildings, and other forms of close-quarter fighting.
- Light Mortars are long-range nuisances able to saturate an enemy position with explosives.
- Weather and Fire add flavor and realism to any battle.
- Artillery is now a frightful weapon with a new and accurate placement process.
- Confidence rules ensure that a side will not fight to the last man, but may retreat or waver if they sustain too many casualties.
