An expansion book for Defiant Russia using the map from the Defiant Russia Players’ Edition game with pieces from the out of print Red Vengeance game plus 40 new ones.
In June 1944, the Red Army opened a massive offensive known as Operation Bagration. Designed to expel the Hitlerite hordes who had invaded Mother Russia three years earlier, the attack began a series of victorious offensives that only ended with the capture of Berlin less than a year later.
Red Victory uses the map from our Defiant Russia Players’ Edition game and the pieces from our old out-of-print Red Vengeance game plus 40 new ones to re-create this campaign on your game table. The game system is the same as that of Defiant Russia, with a few minor alterations to reflect the changed situation.
The game plays swiftly, much like its parent game. The Red Army’s goals are simple: drive forward until Berlin falls. The Axis just play a more complicated game, holding back the Soviets, counter-attacking judiciously, and trying to keep Germany’s allies from defecting to the other side.
Red Victory includes full-color player aids like those for the Defiant Russia Players’ Edition, including scenario set-ups. The 180 pieces represent for the most part armies for the Soviets and corps for the Germans. There are also Yugoslav partisans, Romanians, Bulgarians, and Hungarians present. There’s also a 32-page book containing the rules and the usual background you’ve come to expect from an Avalanche Press product.
Red Victory is not a complete game: ownership of Defiant Russia is necessary for its play.
