East Front is a fast-playing card-driven game which provides an in-depth look at one of the major operational theaters of the World War 2, allowing players to recreate this historical conflict in less than 2 hours.
- In Quartermaster General: East Front one player commands the Axis and the other the Allies (Soviets).
- The Axis has two factions, Germany, and Pact. The Pact represents the nations that fought alongside Germany in World War II - signatories of the Tripartite Pact, plus Finland. The two sides play very differently and have their own strengths and weaknesses.
- The Axis must use their initial advantage to seize as much territory as possible – the Soviets begin with 10 Victory stars and the Axis just 7.
- As the Allies, the player needs to cobble together a defense that selectively destroys advancing Axis elements while still maintaining a solid line – and whenever possible, keep reserves ready for a counterattack.
