The rules state:
Winter in Russia (or severe winter),
which now includes all the region in
North / East Europe shown in the maps
in section 8.6 will hit at the start of an
Axis turn and its start is determined by
the probabilities given in the table in
section 8.8.
In my game of 1.02, severe winter started at the end of the Axis turn before the Russian turn. Was something changed or this is a bug?

That is a documentation mistake. We haven't changed the severe winter start from the vanilla game. It starts after the German turn so it has maximum effect. If it starts at the beginning of the Axis turn then they can retreat and avoid the worst effect of the severe winter.

So it's correct that the severe winter should start at the end of the Axis turn.

Hi
On the Axis side of the turn was it winter? If so the the wording is somewhat correct.
Severe weather will start on the Allies side of the turn. I just checked and I had winter early Nov 41 then Mud in late Nov 41, Winter in early Dec for the Axis and then Severe winter on the Allied side of the turn. We will look into rewriting to be a little clearer.

Good luck with your game.
