RE: Which PzC East Front campaign game is the most balanced?
S41 is a great game and the perfect primer for learning to play the Soviets. If you can win as the Soviets in S41 XP2 or get a draw in the in the stock scenarios, you will have mastered the art of PzC defense.
K42 is a good game, until the German offensive starts on the south.
R42 is a real slug fest. To win a s the Russians you really have to learn to be real patient and maximize your small advantages.
K43, release more of the Soviet reserves early and the Germans can do whatever they want. This game allows both sides ample attack and defense opportunities.
K44, as long as the weather is bad the Soviets can pursue and sometimes close with the Germans. Once the visibility is more than one hex, the Soviets get greased by the abundance of German units that can fire more than one hex and still back up out of harms way.
Can not comment yet on M41 or S42.
