| Press info: | Guderian: "My Führer, why do you want to attack in the East at all this year?" Hitler: "You are quite right. Whenever I think of this attack, my stomach turns over." Nikita Khrushchev: "And now to work--prepare to welcome the fascists!" First Army HQ, July 2, 1943." Blood & Steel is a war game simulation of the climactic battle fought near Prokhorovka Station during the Kursk campaign. The historic battle between the 2nd SS Panzer Corp and the Soviet's 5th Guards Tank Army can be likened to the collision of two irresistible forces. Before this battle the SS never failed in its attacks. Afterwards, the retreat to Berlin would only be delayed, not stopped. | |
