As Adolf Hitler's Third Reich spiralled ever downward towards its' apocalyptic end through 1944, a great many German soldiers, scientists, and Nazi party members began to prepare themselves for a defeat that had been unthinkable in the heady days of 1940. Many resigned themselves to fight to the death, expecting no mercy from the Soviets who were ever closer to crossing onto the sacred soil of the Fatherland itself. 

There were some, however, who saw in the looming defeat as a setback, not the end. 

The most important of these men was SS Oberstgruppenfuhrer Otto Ganz. The second in command of the SS Science Division, Ganz had been part of the team that had pioneered the use of the gas Zyklon B used in Hitler's insane plot to exterminate an entire race of people. From 1942 onwards Ganz was assigned the mammoth task of building a vast bunker housing many of the Third Reich's most secret science projects. After the destruction of Army Group Centre in the Summer of 1944 the German leadership also began transferring masses of its stolen art treasures, looted from Paris to Prague, to this secret base that carried the  same codename as Hitler's Headquarters: The Wolf's Lair. Where this base was located was a mystery. Otto Ganz died in a Soviet ambush on the 7th of May, 1945, whilst he was trying to escape Berlin.

And now a fragment of documents from the Army Group North, that operated in the North of the Soviet Union, has come to light in the Archives in Berlin. They claim that in the Courland Peninsula there is a bunker that was operated by Ganz, and contains clues to the whereabouts of this fabulous cache of Nazi engineering and loot. 

Will you join the hunt? Others are after this hoard, and will not hesitate to use force to claim it.

Good luck.
