Golden Journal No. 54 Stalin's Tanks

Note: Gold Club members can use their max discount.

Like all other major powers, the Red Army studied and rejected many proposed tank designs during the course of World War II. Some of these were intriguing vehicles that likely would have made an impact on the battlefield, but the Soviet leadership did not make the German error of frittering away their productive capacity on an array of different vehicle types. Instead, they built just a few types of tanks, and built them in huge quantities.

Stalin’s Tanks looks at four of these proposals: the T34/57, maximized to fight enemy tanks. The T34/95, a support tank made necessary by the T34/57’s relatively lesser performance against soft targets. The massive KV5 “Tiger Hunter,” armed with a high-velocity 107mm gun. And the KV220, an early attempt to fit an 85mm gun in the KV heavy tank in place of its standard 76.2mm weapon.

You get 24 new die-cut and silky smooth pieces and new scenarios for Panzer Grenadier: Kursk Burning Tigers so you can play with these tanks in history’s greatest tank battle.
