HPS Simulations announced has been released the 14^th title in the Panzer Campaigns series of WWII operational games by John Tiller: Moscow ’41.

Moscow '41 features the familiar Panzer Campaigns interface and game scale where 1 hexes represents 1 km and a 2 hour game turn. The map area encompasses over 150,000 hexes (438 x 385) which is larger than the Kursk Map by almost 1/3^rd.  The area covers from 15km north of Kalinin in the north to 80 km south of Tula.

27 Scenarios are included covering both Fall and Winter fighting with two major Campaign Periods
- 2 Oct until the on set of the muddy weather brought the offensive to a halt.
- 15 Nov until the drive ended on the outskirts of Moscow.

Campaign scenarios are included for both time periods as well as smaller scenarios covering specific actions and what if situations. OOB & Scenario editors are included which allow players to customize the game to their desires. There’s no limit on the scenarios that can be created and the sub-map feature allows the main map to be “chopped” up into the specific size that best fits the situation.

As is the hallmark of all Tiller games, Moscow ’41 brings new engine changes to the series which enhance the campaign being portrayed, and as always, all new features will be rolled out for free to the previous titles in the series:

• Added new Frozen Penalty rules (see Environment section of Users Manual). (Added to account for the lack of preparation the Germans made for this first winter in Russia. So as the German player you will battle the weather as well as a growing number of Russian Units.)
• Change so that units with Hard Attack values of range 0 only have those attack values affect assaults under the optional Alternate Assault rule and not default assaults.
• Changes to AT Guns including no ZOC, ability to retreat after assault, and increased disruption against hard vehicles.
• Changes to Heavy AA Guns including no ZOC and increased disruption against hard vehicles.
