It depends on what “work” means – in other words, on whether players would consider a Kursk scenario appealing. Conceptually, Kursk would be similar to A&A D-Day (minus the water) in the sense that the battle was fundamentally a frontal assault on a heavily-defended static position, and similar to A&A Battle of the Bulge in the sense that it would involve ground forces driving into enemy lines, but different from both games in the sense that from the German point of view Kursk was a pincer movement aimed at pinching off a salient, and that from the Russian point of view it was a two-stage offensive-defensive battle. Personally I think it has good potential to make an interesting game, if it’s designed properly.
Enhanced game pieces

I am adding 1/2400 ships (panzerschiffe) for all countries with 1/285 ghq tanks.
I am thinking about 1/600 aircraft but might just stick with plastic.
I am getting some candian roundels made. I am looking for some minor
factories to put on my board. I also want to add some railway to
Russia as well as some fortresses to Malta and gilbrator.
Any ideas? -

The War Game has minor factories and you can buy sets of extra pieces for $60.00

Any ideas?Those ships are going to be too large at 1/2400th scale unless you have a large custom map. FMG is coming out with new pieces soon that should be good.

I printed IL’s map out in 4 sections that is 47"x 92". I am then putting a 48x 96" piece of plexiglass over it. These ships look great on them. Now to get them painted.
