3.SS-Panzerdivision 'Totenkopf' Gaming Set The 3.SS-Panzerdivision ‘Totenkopf’ or Deathhead carried the meanest, nastiest reputation in the SS. They earned their initial battle honours during the first winter on the Russian Front. Fighting on, frozen, surrounded and out of supply, the 15000 man unit was reduced to 2700 survivors at Demjansk, where 11 Knights crosses were awarded. Thrown into the line at Kharkov twice, Kursk, Prokhorovka, Kirvoi-Rog, Siedlce, Warsaw, and Budapest they were feared by all who fought against them.
