It features the advance of the right flank of Army Group Center consisting of the 2nd Army, 4th Army, 2nd Panzer Group and, for a time, 4th Panzer Group, from late September to late December, 1941.

This is the first game of Operational Combat System (OCS) series from The Gamers and deals with the drive on Moscow in 1941. While Guderian's Blitzkrieg is not intended for the novice game player, it is definitely worth taking a look at.
