Demyansk Pocket 1942 is a turn based strategy game set on the Eastern Front during the Second World War. Your mission is to re-open the route to the German units the Red Army has managed to encircle near Demyansk. From Joni Nuutinen: by a wargamer for the wargamers since 2011.
Historical background: During the attacks of the winter of 1941–1942, the Soviet Red Army managed to encircle 100,000 German soldiers holding the front line in Demyansk, located half-way between Moscow and Leningrad. After receiving reinforcements, the Wehrmacht unleashed an offensive against the city of Staraya Russa. The purpose was not to evacuate the encircled units, but to reopen a land connection to the out-of-supply forces in Demyansk pocket in the hope of continuing to control the area as a preparation for future campaigns. Meanwhile, the encircled units, with inadequacy supplied by the Luftwaffe, engaged in a cutthroat battle for life or death. One of the encircled German units was the 3rd WSS Division, which earned its elite status in the fierce battles leading the defense of the pocket, a process in which the unit suffered 80% casualties. However, the German victory in Demyansk in 1942 paved the way for a major German miscalculation a year later, when 300,000 German soldiers were encircled in Stalingrad in 1943, and based on the successful experiences from Demyansk, the commanders were ordered to wait for help instead of breaking out.
Game: You take command of both the encircled units and the fresh divisions, attempting to re-establish a land route from Staraya Russa to Demyansk as quickly as possible. To have a chance to seize the top spot in the Hall of Fame, you need to skillfully lead units through the Red Army rifle divisions as quickly as possible and maintain the newly opened route for nine consecutive turns. All this while fiercely defending the cut-off Demyansk area with poorly supplied Wehrmacht and auxiliary units.
Objective: The game is over after you re-establish a connection between the cities of Staraya Russa and Demyansk - and successfully and continuously maintain that connection for 9 consecutive turns.
Settings: A long list of options (split on two separate settings pages) are available to alter the look of the game: Change difficulty level, hexagon size, Animation speed, choose icon set for units (NATO or REAL) and cities (Round, Shield, Square, block of houses), decide what is drawn on the map, turn some support units types on/off, are negative move points marked on the units, and much more.
Privacy Policy (full text on website and app menu): No account creation, the made-up username used in the Hall of Fame listings is not tied to any account and does not have password. Location, personal, or device identifier data is not accessed or used in any way. In the case of a rare crash the following non-personal data is sent (vie web-form using ACRA library) to allow quick fix: Stack trace (code which failed), Name of the App, Version number of the App, and Version number of the Android OS. The app only requests the couple of permissions it absolutely needs to function.
"The Demyansk Pocket was a remarkable achievement of German soldiery. Despite being surrounded for months, they were able to hold out and ultimately break out of the encirclement."
-- General Hans Speidel, Chief of Staff of the 2nd Army
+ War Status: Shows the number of hexagons the player gained/lost in the previous movement phase

+ HOF refresh (the oldest scores deleted)
