This week we head to the Eastern Front of WWII with Panzer Campaigns: Rzhev '42 covering Operation Mars. In history, it is overshadowed by the titanic struggle occurring at Stalingrad (Operation Uranus) at the same time, yet it was probably the more important strategically.

We are off to the Eastern Front and have the next tranche of version 4.05.3 updates for Panzer Campaigns.

In 1941 and 1942 the Axis powers were at their zenith in the Soviet Union. Starting with the initial invasion in June 1941, the push would take them to Moscow and then beyond to the banks of the Volga River. It was only with the 'planetary' offensives of Operation Mars/Jupiter at  Rzhev and Uranus/Saturn at Stalingrad that the tide would finally begin to turn. Following on from the recent Panzer Campaigns upgrades rolled out with Game of the Week titles, we are releasing the updates for a further six Panzer Campaigns titles with the new 4.05.3 version.

1943 was the pivotal year on the Eastern Front. Germany surrendered in Stalingrad while the Soviet forces advanced to the west, only to be halted at Kharkov and battered at Kursk. The Germans lost much of their operational reserve, earning little more than a few weeks reprieve before the Russians ground forward to the Dnepr in the push to cross this mighty river and liberate Kiev.

Today we bring you five more titles in the Panzer Campaigns series up to the 4.05.3 level:

With Donbas '43 on the horizon, we explore how Panzer Campaigns has been fleshing out the 1943 Eastern Front—Kharkov, Kursk, Rumyantsev, Orel, Smolensk, Kiev, and now the Donets battles. This was the moment of closest parity: Soviet depth and maturing tank armies versus German 'fire-brigade' armor scrambling to plug breakthroughs. See the operational maps of the Dnepr, grab the reading list, and get a glance at our 'Donets Front '43' mega-campaign idea for a handful of huge, linked scenarios built for head-to-head play. Tell us what you think!

Panzer Campaigns: Donbas '43 is out now, taking the 1943 series into one of the Eastern Front's most important summer and autumn campaigns.
From the Mius battles and Izyum-Barvenkovo to Zmiyev, Taganrog, and the wider Donbas offensive, the game covers a crucial phase in the struggle for southern Russia and eastern Ukraine. It includes 101 scenarios on a huge map, with actions ranging from smaller engagements to a full 398-turn campaign.
Also published today is a companion blog post, The Operational Art of 1943, which provides additional historical context for the changing nature of operations in 1943.
