My 10mm Wargaming

10mm Battle of Stalingrad Project

Tag: Stalingrad

The 10mm Battle of Stalingrad Project is an extension of my detailed 10mm WWII Project, focusing on accurately depicting the significant and ferocious conflict that took place in Stalingrad.

The rules I will be using are Rapid Fire.

The core of the army will be built using Pendraken Miniatures other manufacturers which I intend using are Magister Militum. The buildings which I intend using are from various manufacturers Pendraken, JR Miniatures buildings sold by Magister Militum, Fieldworks and TimeCast.

Army Group South’s Operation Blau began in June 1942, aiming to secure Stalingrad and Baku’s oil fields. Despite Luftflotte 4’s bombing, the 6th Army faced fierce resistance from General Chuikov’s Soviet 62nd Army. November’s Operation Uranus encircled the Germans, leading to surrender by February 1943, with devastating losses and minimal survivors returning post-war.
