About the Game

The Kerensky Offensive of 1917 was the last "big push" for Russia during World War I. Fighting in the thick of it were three British squadrons of armored cars, organized and commanded by Oliver Stillingfleet Locker-Lampson. A mix of Lanchesters, Rolls-Royces, Fords, and Pierce-Arrows, the armored cars were everywhere during the battle, surging ahead as Russian infantry stormed the German and Austro-Hungarian trenches, shooting it out in Kozowa as a burning ammunition dump threatened to explode, and escorting British ambulances during a massive Russian retreat.

Hold the Flank! features six scenarios designed for the Bigger Battles system of rules by Wiley Games, but can easily be adapted to other systems. It includes a historical overview of the British armored cars squadrons' role in the Kerensky Offensive, as well as excerpts from newspaper and magazine articles published at the time. Whether you want to play scenarios from the eastern front of the Great War or are just wanting to learn more about the Kerensky Offensive, this product is packed with solid gameplay and detailed historic information.
