[注意]《闪击战1939-1941》画册上市，不容错过！

As the seemingly unstoppable German juggernaut tore through the heart of Europe, battled on the sands of Africa, and flooded across the steppes of Russia, much of the world girdled itself to resist the Blitzkrieg-the Lightening War. There was no secret to the initial German successes. The newly developed combined arms force-panzer, artillery, infantry, Luftwaffe-coupled with well planned operations from an effective command and control system, lead to the success of the German Army during the early years of WWII.

Many factors contributed to the success and character of the German Army. Among them are well trained highly motivated soldiers with the capability to execute orders from senior officers. Also important is the positive attitude toward the military profession.

Gordon Rottman brings us 20 scenarios during the Blitzkrieg years, 1939 to 1941 with a background of history and description of uniform and equipment in each scenario. Among the battles covered are Warsaw, Narvik, Somme, Crete, Sidi Rezegh, Sollum, Smolensk and Leningrad.

Ron Volstad is without doubt the best artist in illustrating soldiers of the 20th century. His works of art adorn the box covers of Dragon model kits over the past 15 years and his ever improving painting skills and expertise in the uniforms and equipment bring us 20 authentic and action filled plates of the German soldiers in the blitzkrieg era. This book is a definite 'MUST HAVE' for WWII enthusiasts. Of particular interest are two plates illustrating individual and unit equipment of the German soldiers during the years 1939-1941.
