Breaking Point is a mission which has the player in charge of Germany while it is in very bad shape from a war. The player's goal is to capture Moscow or survive five months.
Mission briefing:
Germany's vanguard sits at the outskirts of Moscow, the final effort in a brief war to eliminate the would-be leader of Eastern Europe before it. However, Ukraine, previously neutral, is believed to have been drawn into an alliance by Moscow. Ukranian armored columns have been spotted along the border, and war appears inevitable. Germany's neighbors and the World Market have grown hostile over the war, as well. Germany must now decide whether to gamble on the capture of Moscow, or fight its main force back to Germany and defend its interior from East and West long enough to negotiate peace.
Designer Notes:
MILITARY DIFFICULTY : Very Hard
ECONOMIC DIFFICULTY : Medium-Hard
SCENARIO LENGTH : Medium
Opposing forces have great numerical superiority, and aren't significantly inferior when it comes to quality. You may experience manpower shortages, and are very much outmatched when it comes to build capacity. Your treasury may go into the red if the game continues for long (military goods imports are enormous).
To be clear on the victory conditions, you win by moving an HQ unit to Moscow, or surviving to the end date with both of your HQ units (General at Berlin, and Expeditionary with the southern attack group) alive. You lose by having either HQ unit destroyed, or having your region collapse.
