Memoir ’44: Eastern Front

About this expansion

Memoir ’44: Eastern Front is a World War II expansion for 2–8 players, with games lasting about 60 minutes. Released in 2005, it adds a focused set of battles featuring the Axis and Soviet forces.

From the frozen shores of Lake Ladoga to the burning ruins of Stalingrad, this expansion revisits some of the most intense fighting of the war. Its scenarios portray a front where entire army groups disappeared faster than a single battalion on the beaches of Normandy.

Eastern Front follows the Terrain Pack expansion. While that earlier expansion focused on new terrain and rules, this release is devoted to the ferocious battles that pitted Axis and Soviet forces against each other.

• Scenarios set across major Eastern Front battles
• A scenario drawn from the Russian-Finnish War
• An Overlord scenario depicting Kursk, described as the largest tank battle in history

The inclusion of Kursk gives the expansion a particularly large-scale historical focus, while the Russian-Finnish War scenario broadens its coverage beyond the central Axis-Soviet conflict. Together, these scenarios capture the variety and intensity associated with the Eastern Front.

For players who want to continue their Memoir ’44 experience with battles centered on the Axis and Soviet forces, Memoir ’44: Eastern Front offers a dedicated historical expansion. It is part of the Memoir ’44 series and brings some of the conflict’s most dramatic locations and engagements to the table.
