The Totaler
Krieg! Living Rules booklet: This link
provides the final edition of the rules booklet with all of the errata
incorporated into it. Note that it
contains only the text (not the graphics) of the rules and you will want to format
in page breaks before printing it out. If you want to jump to

The Totaler
Krieg! Living Scenarios booklet: This booklet incorporates all the scenarios
from the Reference booklet in the game box (except for the Random Campaign
Game), plus nine new scenarios created after the game's release
(described below). To go
with a couple of those new scenarios, you will also find the new East First
Display.
What's New?
Besides incorporating all of the latest errata and extending the Players Notes for the Official Tournament Scenarios, there are nine new one- and two-map scenarios included and integrated into the booklet. They are:
Two-map Campaign Games:
 | The Red Menace scenario postulates a whole new "what if?" World War II situation. In this scenario, Germany is minor country (albeit a pretty strong one) still hampered by the Treaty of Versailles. The Soviet Union has decided the march of Communism must move westward and only the foxy Western Allied player is there to try to check Stalinist moves. It's East versus West from 1939 on in this ideological duel. |
| The World War One Rematch is another "what if?" campaign game postulating a Central Powers victory in The Great War (World War One) and lining up those countries again for a rematch in World War Two. France is spoiling for revenge against the Kaiser's Reich, while Austria-Hungary and Turkey have grown even as their empires continue to rot. |
|
|
| The Hinge of Fate is a standard campaign scenario beginning in Summer of 1943. The Allies are struggling to seize the initiative for good. Could D-Day have happened in 1943? Play this scenario and find out! |
One-map East Front Scenarios:
| Russian Tides presents an East Front scenario covering the period from November-December '41 to March-April '43 (with optional Victory Conditions to make this a full East Front Campaign Game extending through November-December '44). There's a lot of back and forth in this one as the Russians try to expel the Axis invaders out of the Motherland as quickly as possible. The Axis have sufficient forces to resist, but using them to seize the initiative whenever possible must be the Axis player's vital concern. |
| Case Blue is a standard East Front campaign scenario, but starting with the Axis Summer '42 offensive. Will the renewed Axis offensive take them north to finish (Finnish?) off Leningrad and seize Moscow once and for all? Or are the opportunities greater in the south where the Soviet lines are thinner and Sevastopol, Rostov, and Baku are the prizes? |
| Clash of Titans is another standard East Front campaign scenario, but starting with the Axis Summer '43 campaign and the devastating Soviet counteroffensive. Could the battle of Kursk been better conducted elsewhere or at a different time? Should the Axis have completely surrendered the initiative to the Soviets? The answers lie in this short campaign scenario. |
| Panzers East! is not just another East Front game. This one postulates an Axis attack directly against the Soviet Allies (while appeasement shields their rear in the West). The small but growing German Army must face the purged and staggering Red Army in a vicious death struggle before the Blitzkrieg has been fully tested and before Total War begins. Can you conquer or save the Soviet Union on a shoestring? |
One-map West Front Scenario:
| The West Ablaze! presents an "Wild West" scenario covering the period from November-December '40 through November-December '41. In this scenario, the Germans have attacked Russia first and now the West has ended Appeasement and lined up against Spain and Italy in an attempt to subdue them before the Soviet Union collapses and the Germans come marching on the map en masse. It's a wild, circling |
