Version 4.0

I used the module created by Ed Messina (version 2.5) which uses the board, chart and counter graphics that were created by John Cooper (john@jrcooper.com). I also fixed the map to report the correct hex id's when you hover over the map or view the flyout (thanks to several folks in the forums), also updated all the UI buttons and added a symbolic d6 and added all the predefined setups found in all the Generals.

Here is list of all the 18 predefined setups:

  • Carl Knabe Plan Lenin Setup
  • Charles Sutherland Setup
  • Dave Roberts Setup
  • Dave Roberts Take Warsaw Setup
  • Ed Menzel Setup
  • Geller Setup
  • George Phillies Setup
  • Jim Zajicek Setup
  • Joe Angiolillo Setup
  • Joe Beard Hyper Modern Setup
  • MITSGS Setup
  • Paul Bakulski Setup
  • Paul Siragusa Setup
  • Phil Huffman Setup
  • Richard Shagrin Setup
  • Ron Bullis Setup
  • Schneider Setup
  • Steve Packwood Setup

Previous versions

The Avalon Hill classic of the turning point of World War II. The module uses board and counter art by John Cooper.

The Base10 extension adds an optional combat table based on the roll of a 10-sided die.

Module Version 3.0 adds screen capture plus several more additions for those with tired eyes.

Stalingrad "Original Art" uses map and counters from the original 1963 Avalon Hill game.

Plus version "Original Art" incorporates 17 Russian Setups used by masters of the game. (My inspiration derived from Stalingrad's ZunTzu gamebox.)

NOTE that Stalingrad OA with AH hex numbers (Version 3.2) has a custom code "Out of Date" message but just ignore. (Click "Do Not Show This Again") but it does have the original Avalon Hill oblique hex numbering system incorporated.

WGA 160210: Still working on resolving oblique (diagonal) hex id's to enable correct logging of movement. This is resolved in WGA Afrika Korps module via custom java code many years ago. I seem to be unable to import the class successfully into this module; my java programmer is no longer accessible.
