About this expansion

Old School Tactical: Volume 1 – 2nd Edition: Red Blitz is a two-player expansion for Old School Tactical Vol I 2nd Edition, adding six scenarios and an extended campaign set during the vicious fighting of Operation Bagration in summer 1944.

Red Blitz offers a mix of focused engagements and a larger, connected battle. The extended battle takes place on Vol I’s Map 1 and uses a multi-part legacy scenario: gains made during the day remain in your hands, reinforcements enter the fighting, and a running score determines the winning side after all rounds are complete.

The six one-off scenarios are played across four new pocket maps, featuring both summer and winter terrain. These compact battlefields provide fresh settings for the expansion’s new combatants and challenging tactical situations.

  • Six new scenarios plus a separate extended campaign
  • Four new 11 x 17-inch maps: two summer and two winter maps
  • New vehicles and combatants, including the SU-76M, SU-85, OT-34, PT34, ISU-152, IS-2, StuH-42, Panther, and Nashorn
  • A sheet of counters featuring the new units and other game pieces
  • A dedicated box for storing the expansion’s components

From short engagements to a battle whose results carry forward from one round to the next, Red Blitz expands the tactical possibilities of the Old School Tactical system. Its combination of new maps, new forces, and persistent campaign scoring gives two players fresh ways to experience the Eastern Front.

Old School Tactical Vol I 2nd Edition is required to play.
