This is the setup for ILs eastern front game. I did not use chips so that you could get a better idea of the number of units. The map shown is 4ft.x 5ft. It can be printed smaller overall.
Got most of the map in this shot. Looks like this will be our next game probably next week.
These two tanks are not part of the setup. They represent heavy armor which comes into the game during later turns.
Start in summer 1941, I presumed?
Is it the beginning set up?

Is the Soviet tank from Table tactics?

The German tank is from TT. The Soviet tank is from Memoir 44.
No unit in the other Russain and German territory?

Thats the way IL has it setup in his rules. We have not played the first game yet. Hard telling what changes we will end up making after some test games.
Is this map still available somewhere?
I like the map but there’s holes in the russian set up.
Soviet troops was much more scattered on the eastern front in summer 1941.

The setup is based on historical, they were mostly on the front lines according to old Soviet maps of the period
IL is this map still around and is it for sale?

The Soviets had a defense line set up well inside the Soviet Union. After the Polish and Baltic states were occupied, then Stalin himself ordered the Russian forces out of their prepared positions and moved to the new frontiers. This is part of the reason that so many of the Soviet armies were enveloped and forced to surrender in the early part of Barbarossa.
