Between 1941 and 1944, a huge duel was fought between the Army Group Centre and the Red Army, German Army Group Centre was at the core of Hitler's push through Russia, charged with the capture of Moscow by way of Minsk.
The outcome of this would prove decisive for the development of World War II, from the easy victories during the first advance into Russia, to the first setback outside Moscow, and on to the terrifying Russian advance in 1944.
The most formidable concentration of force on the eastern front, Army Group Centre was the dagger-thrust at the heart of the soviet state; it's success would be inextricably linked to the outcome of the whole campaign.
Indecision, the unforgiving Russian winter and the defences around Moscow would force the retreat and ultimately the defeat of Army Group Centre.
The Battle of Kursk signalled the beginning of the end for the Third Reich, this is the captivating story of the war in the middle sector of the Eastern Front.
