Advanced Tobruk System Basic Game II: Streets of Stalingrad

About this board game

Advanced Tobruk System Basic Game II: Streets of Stalingrad is a two-player tactical World War II board game with an approximately 120-minute playing time. It introduces the Advanced Tobruk System through four scenarios set during the Battle of Stalingrad in October and November 1942.

The game recreates squad-level battles on a map depicting an industrial area of Stalingrad. Each hex represents 50 yards of terrain, while each turn covers two minutes, providing a focused framework for tactical battlefield action.

Players use counters to represent the battlefield’s personnel and equipment. These include squads, leaders, crews, individual tanks, and heavy weapons, allowing the scenarios to portray encounters at a detailed scale.

• Four scenarios covering the Battle of Stalingrad in October and November 1942
• A 22″ × 34″ map of an industrial area in Stalingrad
• Core infantry and vehicle rules for the Advanced Tobruk System
• Game scale of 50 yards per hex and two minutes per turn

The included 20-page rulebook provides the core infantry and vehicle rules needed to begin exploring the system. As an introduction to the Advanced Tobruk System, Advanced Tobruk System Basic Game II: Streets of Stalingrad focuses on the essential rules and a compact set of scenarios rather than presenting the full range of battles represented by the broader system.

With its historical Stalingrad setting, carefully defined tactical scale, and dedicated industrial-area map, this 2005 release offers a structured entry point into squad-level World War II gaming.
