Historical Overview: In the early morning hours of the 22nd of June 1941, German forces of Army Group Center crossed the border and headed for Minsk. Scenario Overview: Blitzkrieg 101. This is a 3 turn scenario and thus the best place to start if you plan on playing any of the other 'Road To' scenarios, the Barbarossa scenario, or the '41 Campaign Game. A matter of learning with a smaller, more managable force and time frame.

Attack relentlessly; the Soviets will be reduced to paasive observers.

Good scenario to learn the game or practice an opening move.
'Millions died or suffered in the mud of Flanders between 1914-18. Who remembers them? Even those with names on their graves are by now unknown soldiers.' - Mier Ronnen, Jerusalem Post, 1933 Gris
