From the Volga to Berlin (IS🎭)

Autumn, 1942. Across the black water of the Volga, Stalingrad burns. You are Mikhail Andreyevich Morozov, a young Red Army private from a small logging and mining town in the Ural Mountains. You grew up hunting in cold forests and know how to handle a rifle, read tracks, keep still, and endure hardship, but none of that has prepared you for artillery, ruins, smoke, hunger, fear, and the brutal confusion of city fighting. You are not famous, not decorated, and not important. You are one replacement soldier among thousands, waiting to cross into a battle that has already devoured better men. If you survive, the war will not end at Stalingrad. Your path may carry you west with the Red Army through frozen trenches, shattered villages, tank battles, river crossings, ruined cities, and the long road toward Berlin. Skill, rank, trust, wounds, enemies, friendships, and reputation must be earned through your choices. You may become a marksman, scout, squad leader, veteran, hero, or broken survivor, but you begin as almost nothing: a young soldier with an old rifle, a hunter’s patience, and no choice but to move forward.
