With 'Barbarossa', take part in the greatest land invasion in history as you experience first-hand the momentum of Blitzkrieg with the men and machines of Panzer Group 2 as they charge eastward through Belorussia in early July, 1941. With the encirclment of Minsk complete, the Panzers turn east once again racing for the Berezina River southeast of Minsk.

Nearly 1 kilometer square, Barbarossa provides a massive landscape to plan your assaults and defenses. Farm fields and rivers to cross, trenchlines to assault, ridgelines to defend, villages to take. You will be equipped with a range of entirely new and historically accurate vehicles : the Germans will attack using PanzerIII and Panzer IV medium tanks, the Sturmgesch?tz III armored assault gun, or load up 6 assault troops in a SdKfz Halftrack, all supported by 75mm Pak40 anti-tank guns. The Russians will face the onslaught with the monstrous KV-1 heavy tank, the nimble and quick firing BT-7 light tank, the tenacious BA10 armored car, or lay in wait with a 45mm anti-tank gun for approaching Panzers. You must learn the strengths and weaknesses of each of these new weapons to be successful - each one is a very different and only by being properly employed will your mission be successful.

This is 'Barbarossa'. The Blitzkrieg has started!

This film takes you on a 6 minute journey with the men and machines of Panzer Group 2 as they charge eastward through Belorussia in early July, 1941. An emotionally charged musical score adds a depth of drama and anticipation to the stubborn yet failing defenses offered by the RKKA 4th Army as they fall back toward the Berezina.
