Editing Ostfront (section)

== Design and History ==
Ostfront was originally written by Tom Jensen in 2011 for two small armies of German and Russian tanks. The original armies consisted of 6 different vehicles each, and the entire rules fit on 2 pages.
Since then the system has been extensively playtested and expanded by Tom Jensen and Eugene Gielen. Eugene was instrumental in creating points for each unit, allowing players to have even armies no matter the composition.
Over the years more and more units and factions were added, with Tom and Eugene doing the research for all the vehicles, and drafting out stats and points costs for each one. Infantry were added, as well as support like artillery and air support.

After much polishing, Ostfront was finally released for purchase in printed form in 2016. There's also a starter rule set available on a pay-what-you-want basis.
