The Battle of Moscow was a military campaign that took place between October 1941 and January 1942.
German offensive towards the Soviet capital was nothing less than an "all-out attack". Moscow was one of the primary military and political objectives for Axis forces in their invasion of the Soviet Union.
The German strategic offensive, named Operation Typhoon, called for two pincer offensive. Initially, the Soviet forces conducted a strategic defense by constructing three defensive belts.
As the German offensives were halted, a Soviet strategic counter-offensive and smaller-scale offensive operations forced the German armies back.
It was a major setback for the Germans, the end of the idea of a fast German victory in the USSR.
We reproduced the tension of those days. Such small details as the Kremlin on the map do matter too. Water - in progress :)
