Memoir '44: Eastern Front Expansion

I'll start out by saying that of the three current expansions for Memoir; if I could only get one, then Memoir '44: The Eastern Front (Days of Wonder, 2005 - Richard Borg) would be that one. I've always found the eastern front of World War II fascinating, and the game adds a lot of cool rules, terrain tiles, and most importantly - Russian plastic forces. Don't get me wrong - the other two expansions are essential, in my opinion, but this is the one that I've played the most and the one I've had the most fun with. Scenarios: The scenarios included in this expansion are hands down the most fun ones I've ever played. Two that stick out to me are Stalingrad (in which snipers, a long embankment, and mines are used - it's one of the neatest defensive positions I've played with) and Kursk, the largest tank battle in history. Kursk is actually an Overlord scenario, which requires more tanks than come in the expansion kit (but I just made them up with some Allied tanks). Ninety-five tank models are on the board, and it's simply one of the greatest games I've ever played!! Loads of tanks moving and attacking. If you like Memoir '44, then this expansion is a no-brainer, it adds new rules, new terrain, and an entire new army. The Russian rules, sniper rules, and fascinating scenarios are just begging to be played, and it gave a fresh new breath of air to the fascinating game which is Memoir '44. Richard Borg has given us an expansion that not only adds a new historical front, but one that retains simplicity while giving more options. So take that, Advanced Squad Leader!!!
