The Stalingrad campaign expansion contains several new elements that are particular to the campaign game. The various elements are explained in detail below.

CAMPAIGN COMMAND

The new campaign command objectives are all neutral objectives. In addition, each token has an icon that shows what kind of command that particular campaign command objective provides.

Ammunition, Morale. and Supply campaign command objectives

CAMPAIGN COMMAND CARDS

Each player receives a set of Campaign Command cards at the beginning of the campaign (one card each from the Ammunition, Supply, and Morale decks). These are in addition to a player's normal Initiative card.

When a player receives a specific type of command, he places that command on the appropriate card. Its placement on a specific Campaign Command card lets both players know what kind of command that particular token represents. For instance, all command tokens on a player's Morale Campaign Command card represent "morale command."

When placing command on a nation's Initiative card or when paying for cards from strategy decks other than the campaign decks, any type of command may be used.

Campaign Command cards have two sides: a Recruit side, which is blank, and a Veteran side that contains game text that may be used by the owning player as specified on the card. Campaign Command cards always begin the campaign with the Recruit side face up, but may be flipped over to their Veteran side by paying the necessary command cost during the Campaign Phase. Once flipped, a Campaign Command card will remain with its Veteran side face up until the end of the campaign.

CAMPAIGN STRATEGY DECKS

This expansion introduces Campaign Strategy decks that contain the following number of cards:

These cards are used like normal strategy decks with a few key exceptions as follows: First, each Campaign Strategy deck is linked to a specific Campaign Command card. For instance, a Morale Campaign card must be paid for with command from a player's Morale Campaign Command card.

Shared Strategy Decks

In certain scenarios, some Strategy decks are listed as shared. A shared Strategy deck is placed in the common play area (between both players) instead of a nation's HQ area. When drawing cards during the Status Phase, either player may choose to draw cards from a shared Strategy deck.
