Work on Less Than 60 Miles is proceeding well on several fronts…Playtest, Designer’s Notes, graphics and more.
Some fresh details on the scenarios already defined:
- Scenario 1 – The Eleventh Hour
11th Armored Cavalry delay action against 8th Guards Army. - Scenario 2 – Steps of Our Fathers
West German 5th PanzerDivision facing Warsaw Pact’s main thrust by 1st Guards Tank Army. - Scenario 3 – Spearhead
US 3rd Armored Division must contain Soviet 8th Guards Army and send reinforcements North. - Campaign 1 – The Day That Never Comes
After 40 years of planning and maneuvers, this is not a drill anymore. - Campaign 2 – One Minute To Midnight
After weeks of growing tension, the nightmare of Nuclear conflict becomes reality.
On the graphics side, here’s a snapshot of several components at their final version…..Actually, I’ve learned that you can label a version as “Final” only after production print has been completed.
are other independent combat arms battalions going to be included?
as examples, the following are noted in many available on-line OoB’s
for 8th Guards Army-
119th Separate Tank Regiment (Bad Langensalza)
325th Independent Engineer-Sapper Battalion – Merseburg
900th Air Assault Battalion – Hasleben
943rd Independent Anti-Tank Artillery Battalion – Altenburg
Most of independent units at army and corps level are abstracted or incorporated in “main” units values.
Sapper / Engineers forces and capabilities are used as points for river crossing, bridge demolition and defensive works.
