Unentschieden

Unentschieden (German for "Stalemate") is a board wargame published by Game Designers' Workshop (GDW) in 1973 that simulates combat on the Eastern Front during World War II.

Drang Nach Osten!, designed by Rich Banner and Frank Chadwick and published by GDW in 1973 as its first commercial release, covered Germany's surprise invasion of the Soviet Union, Operation Barbarossa from September 1941 to March 1942.

"[7] In The Guide to Simulations/Games for Education and Training, Martin Campion noted, "This set [of two games] shows a lot about the war but at a terrific cost in time and trouble.
