Korsun Pocket Image
  • Summary: Korsun Pocket is the long awaited sequel to "The Ardennes Offensive" in the Decisive Battles system. The game uses a greatly improved version of the Ardennes Offensive engine to recreate the desperate German attempt to escape encirclement on the Russian Front early in 1944. The battle is a tense and exciting struggle, with neither side having a decisive advantage, as the Russians struggle to form the pocket, then try to resist successive German rescue efforts and last ditch attempts at breakout.

  1. Somehow, Korsun Pocket manages to capture everything that's compelling about historical wargaming and presents it as a tremendous game. [Sept 2003, p.103]
  2. 95
    Simply put: Korsun Pocket is a gem of a game and is one of the best wargames ever designed.
  3. A monumental achievement in game design...It is the Mount Everest, the Beethoven's Ninth, and Moby Dick of PC Wargames, and it absolutely qualifies as a genuine work of art. [Nov 2003, p.106]

    If you're an old board-gamer looking for the computerized answer to the classic hex based games, this is it. The interface does all the tracking for you and let's you spend time on designing a strategy. I got it second hand from one of my neighbors kids who was looking for a shoot em up 3-D game. He may have been disappointed, not me! Expand
