For the third consecutive year, we have a nominee in the Modern Warfare category of the CSR Awards….Except this year we have two! 1985: Sacred Oil and The Dogs of War have been both nominated.
A big THANK YOU to every Grognard who supported us! Report to the nearest office of the Directorate for the Evaluation and Assignment of Patriotic Honors and Decorations to receive your Order of Kutuzov, 1st Class.
Thanks to our Embedded Combat Engineer John Rainey, a new version for The Dogs of War Vassal module is here. And yes, the extension allowing to use it in combination with Less Than 60 Miles is ready too!
300 kilometres of World War Three front, with more than 5 Warsaw Pact Armies smashing against 5 NATO Corps. Forget about tomorrow.

As already happened last year, we were keeping a small The Dogs of War strategic reserve in Europe, earmarked for future conventions…..Needless to say, no convention is in sight, so part of the reserve is now committed to the front!
Also, please be aware that this equipment is shipped from Europe. CONUS and Canada should expect higher than usual shipping costs due to Soviet activity in North Atlantic.
SITREP 20210323 0734ZT: A Sukhoi-24 strike destroyed the depot. No more reserve equipment is available.
It is morning fog, which favors superior NATO optics. The Soviets try to use air for spotting targets but don’t find anything. The long distance artillery on the other hand is lucky and manages to suppress the recon battalions in the forward line. NATO air tries to disrupt the armoured columns but are ineffective.
D0 H06 – Air Strikes
Pact troops cross the border, but someone (themselves) have put mines and barbed wire and stuff all over the place, so the going is slow. some force marches are used to get in contact with the enemy, and one regiment takes losses from the fast tempo.
In no particular order, a collection of the incoming reports about the situation in the BAOR sector. I’ll add more satellite images as they arrive!

Thanks to Grognard Emeritus Lionel Martinez, we now have an alternate TDOW Booklet, including revised tables and a different layout! Not sure about the tables, but maybe it’s just me and anyway it’s an outstanding work.
FM 04-003 – Theater Level Operations is here! This Field Manual combines the released C3 modules into a single, die-hard campaign covering the 1985 NATO – Warsaw Pact conflict in West Germany. It will be updated with each new module release.
