The ASLComp variant edition comes with two sheets (x2 of each, for a total of 4) of color die-cut counters, two linking 24" x 36" maps, 16 scenarios + 1 monster scenario that uses the entire playing area, VARIANT rules, plus a play aid or two we couldn't squeeze on to the product shot below but are included to make keeping track of your defense-belt easier as the Russian player. If you are ready for tanks suddenly tumbling into hidden AT Ditches, fougasse flame-throwers emitting fire, giant Panzerjäger VI Elefant tank-destroyers lumbering forward ... not tom mention the toughest manned front since our TIGERS TO THE FRONT/PANTHER LINE, faithfully recreated ... you are ready for DEVIL'S DOMAINTM. And before you rout off to the nearest trench screaming in fear, consider the fact that the pile of 16 scenarios includes lots of fast-playing tournament-sized actions that will get you down on the map quickly after you punch out your counters. And yes, the SSRs are written with brevity (and we don't mean Operation Brevity but that's a hint about an upcoming ASLComp title...) in mind and in fact so you won't get bogged down ... nor mentally immobilized, assuming you are 10 years of age or older and know a Panzer II from a King Tiger. So here's the deal. DEVIL'S DOMAINTM is heading right OUT OF production AND RIGHT ON TO YOUR GAMING TABLE. Once you nail a copy you are GUARANTEED delivery, worldwide, even if the postman in your native Uzbekistan bungles the mission (assuming you live in Uzbekistan, feel free to pencil in "Italy", "France", etc. ... noting you are 100% covered worldwide and we get you your cardboard warriors come hell or high water just like Chantel says!
PONYRI STATION, RUSSIA, 0645 hours 7 July 1943: The 18th Pz Division had hit the west side of Ponyri Station and breached the wire and mines, but at a high cost in men and materials. A company was pushed forward using the terrain as cover, a gully which ran up to the hill with the cemetery on the north side of Ponyri Station. The battalion commander led his men forward, accompanying his second company. Looking through his binoculars the Major determined the ground had been untouched by the massive artillery and bombardments; quietly he motioned to his officers the hand signal to advance. The Soviet entrenchments were elaborate, the Major thought, but not insurmountable. He could see his soldiers weaving through the gully and brush. There were miles and miles of trenches, and wire and the mines. "Damn mines" he muttered to himself. "Yes, Herr Major" his radio operator asked. "The mines had taken over two of every three tanks lost" the major went on as he turned to talk to his operator. As the Major turned he rose slightly from behind his cover, he felt a bullet blast past his ear and hit his radio operator causing the left side of his head to explode. The bullet was meant for me he thought. The radio operator slumped back. The major crouched down, instinctively and turned to see the source of the sniper's bullet. As he turned the gully area erupted in small arms, and machine gun fire on his men. He could see tracers coming from well concealed positions, then explosions; mines! "Damn Mines!" The Major yelled, "Sergeant, get me another radio operator, right now!" |
