STALINGRAD: LUDNIKOV'S ISLAND : 2019


EVENT INFORMATION


DATE: March 1 - 3, 2019
LOCATION: Youngstown, OH


This event combines higher authenticy standards with an immersive combat experience to create something that is too rarely found in Eastern Front WWII reenacting. When everyone is working towards the same goals, with the same guidelines, we can create uniformity and cohesion across all the participating units to create a truly immersive experience; allowing you to feel like you are taking part in something much larger  - rather than just burning powder at a reenactment. This event is designed for those who strive to get their impression right and live the life of the soldier for a weekend.

It should be every reenactors goal to represent what was correct and normal for a particular campaign, not seek out the the small exceptions. Remember, this is a private event, not a public battle.


All participants must have correct glasses or wear contacts. Hair and facial hair must be of period correct style. All participants must be over the age of 18.

No modern vehicles will be permitted at anytime anywhere, except the parking lot.  This means if you can’t carry it into registration, out of registration, and then to your sector, where you will be digging a fox hole, building defensive positions in and around the factory, then leave it at home. 


The authenticity regulations are a minimum standard that must be met to attend. The rules will be enforced at the event and are designed to provide the most enjoyable experience for all involved. We will turn people away at the gate and without refund, if you do not meet these standards! You have several months to tweak your impression to avoid this.
Coordinators will be making themselves available to answer any questions you may have and assist in any way possible to encourage growth and positive changes to anyone’s impression.

You may submit a photo of you in your kit front and back if you are unsure of anything and want to avoid being turned away at the gate. You can send it to ohiofactoryevent@gmail.com
