Today, a sentimental trip. Maybe it does not reach as far as Panzer Leader since we’re just moving back to 1992 but here are some pictures of Bzura 1939 game by Dragon. As you will see my copy has been used heavily and is not in looking too good.
The box.
Part of the map with battle results tables.
German counters. Green not grey… weird.
Polish counters.
Auxiliary counters like retreat, lack of supply etc.
The game itself focuses on the biggest battle of the September Campaign fought between 9-18th of September. It’s an operational level game which uses regiments and battalions mostly but for example cavalry units are represented as brigades due to the earlier loses. Retreating towards Polish armies “Poznań” and “Pomorze” fought against German 8th and 10th Armies. It was a major Polish counterattack that despite being in the unsuccessful forced Germans to change their plans, slowed their advanced in the Lublin area and allowed the defense of Warsaw to hold on for a longer period of time.
