The Battle of Stalingrad (23 August 1942 - 2 February 1943) was a major battle on the Eastern Front of World War II where Nazi Germany and its allies unsuccessfully fought the Soviet Union for control of the city of Stalingrad (later renamed Volgograd) in Southern Russia. The battle was marked by fierce close-quarters combat and direct assaults on civilians in air raids. The Battle of Stalingrad was the deadliest battle to take place during the Second World War and is one of the bloodiest battles in the history of warfare, with an estimated 2 million total casualties. Today, the Battle of Stalingrad is universally regarded as the turning point in the European Theatre of war, as it forced the Oberkommando der Wehrmacht (German High Command) to withdraw considerable military forces from other areas in occupied Europe to replace German losses on the Eastern Front. The victory at Stalingrad energized the Red Army and shifted the balance of power in the favour of the Soviets. Stalingrad was strategically important to both sides as a major industrial and transport hub on the Volga River. Whoever controlled Stalingrad would have access to the oil fields of the Caucasus; and control of the Volga. Germany, already operating on dwindling fuel supplies focused its efforts on moving deeper into Soviet territory and taking the oil fields at any cost. On 4 August, the Germans launched an offensive by using the 6th Army and elements of the 4th Panzer Army. The attack was supported by intense Luftwaffe bombing that reduced much of the city to rubble. The battle degenerated into house-to-house fighting as both sides poured reinforcements into the city. By mid-November, the Germans, at great cost, had pushed the Soviet defenders back into narrow zones along the west bank of the river. On 19 November, the Red Army launched Operation Uranus, a two-pronged attack targeting the weaker Romanian armies protecting the 6th Army's flanks. The Axis flanks were overrun and the 6th Army was cut off and surrounded in the Stalingrad area. Adolf Hitler was determined to hold the city at all costs and forbade the 6th Army from attempting a breakout; instead, attempts were made to supply it by air and to break the encirclement from the outside. The Soviets were successful in denying the Germans the ability to resupply through the air which strained the German forces to their breaking point. Nevertheless, the German forces were determined to continue their advance and heavy fighting continued for another two months. On 2 February 1943, the German 6th army, having exhausted their ammunition and food, finally capitulated, making it the first of Hitler's field armies to surrender during World War II, after five months, one week, and three days of fighting.
@@clonedbrick I allready know. But there are only Germans and Tobruk was in Libia. Afrika korps were invied by the Fuhrel for help ITALIAN FORCES in Africa because he didn't want that ITALIANS colonies could be taken by Allies. If there are Germans, also if these forces fought separated, they fought togheter.
Could you make another video in stalingrad or generally with these beautiful techniques. And couldd you pls also make an explain- or theoryvideo how to make and you them. Thx
ich habe zur zeit so ungefähr 60-70 Euro, die ich gerne in Lego investieren würde. Habe nur kein Plan, ob ich mir Figuren, oder Fahrzeugen, oder Teile holen soll und wenn auch nicht wo. Könntest du mir einen Tipp geben? Das Mac sieht bei dir aber auch wieder fabelhaft aus und ich wüsste nicht, was man noch verbessern könnte
do more of the trenches that surrounded the city, and more layered up rubble that were used a embankments for the trench that city was really tore a new one my pitch show ppsh equiped russians storming an mg position from the flank
How could something 70 years ago thats a part of history possibly be supporting putin? I understand what the disclaimer was for but need people need to chill

Can you make a Tobruk MOC?
He already did a couple months ago
@@clonedbrick I allready know. But there are only Germans and Tobruk was in Libia. Afrika korps were invied by the Fuhrel for help ITALIAN FORCES in Africa because he didn't want that ITALIANS colonies could be taken by Allies. If there are Germans, also if these forces fought separated, they fought togheter.
Will you build another one of Stalingrad?
Yeah why not
Could you make another video in stalingrad or generally with these beautiful techniques. And couldd you pls also make an explain- or theoryvideo how to make and you them. Thx
interesting suggestion!
how about making a diorama on the Battle of Kursk, I think it will be cool?
Made 2, check them out!
yes, I remember, I just wanted a diorama with a large-scale tank massacre, in no case am I forcing you to do it, just a wish
Where do you get your mini figures and weapons from?
these are made by minifigco, weapons made by Brickarms

Könntest du mir einen Tipp geben? Das Mac sieht bei dir aber auch wieder fabelhaft aus und ich wüsste nicht, was man noch verbessern könnte
Wenn du genug teile hast würde ich dir ein paar figuren empfehlen.
Solltest du keine teile haben definitiv ersteinmal teile statt teure figuren
I love small pease’s
do more of the trenches that surrounded the city, and more layered up rubble that were used a embankments for the trench
that city was really tore a new one
my pitch show ppsh equiped russians storming an mg position from the flank
some great ideas!
I see, just like in real life, the Germans don’t have any winter coats !
yes, but in the early stages of the battle in Stalingrad they weren't in need for them
