Scorched Earth - the Wehrmacht in Russia - Army Group North (1999)

June 1941 saw Hitler launch his audacious bid to conquer Russia and his attempt to
succeed where Napoleon had failed. Army Group North swept through the Russian
defences and closed in on the iconic city of Leningrad in less then two months.
So began the now infamous siege that would cost the lives of soldiers and civilians
alike, and coin the phrase "the eternal war of the poor man". Away from Leningrad
a titanic struggle ensued all along the front line, including operations in and
around the Baltic Sea, Norway and Finland.
