Overview:

The defense of downtown Stalingrad rested mainly with two lightly-armed regiments of thes 10th NKVD Divisions. The Germans had broken through and seized several key buildings near the riverbank. From the upper floors of the Brewery, the State Bank, and the Specialists’ Houses the Germans were trying to unnerve the Soviets by firing and shouting threats such as “Russe! Russen will drown in the Wolga!” Col. Petrakov, commander of one of the regiments, knew it was critical that he keep the Germans from capturing the ferry landings before the impending arrival of the 13th Guards Division. As dusk approached, Petrakov and his sixty-odd men grimly prepared to meet the final German thrust. With their backs to the river, there would be no retreat.

2024-02-19(D) O Ramaille vs Lionelc62D German winThe Russian setup at the rear in hope that the Germans spend time reaching the piers. But, the Germans advance without hesitation andwith method. The NKVD could not stand ground and the commissars gave ground too. The Russian sniper awoke way too late. The assault of Russian reinforcements by boat was made under fire with casualties.
There was no hope left to take back the piers from the Germans. Decisive German victory.

2012-11-23(D) Luis Felip vs R Russian (NKVD)/Russian win
2012-11-19(A) Richard Carter vs Stephen M. German winSo I also loaded up the top building. I was able to get enough units in there to reduce to 3 the needed VC buildings. I put 8 squad equivalents up there. This left 1 squad in the middle building and 4 squads in the southernmost building. I actually captured 4/5 piers by turn 4, but I also was not able to get results on the landings. He took back 2 on turn 5, but I got my third on the last turn in CC. Great game!

2011-08-07(D) Jeff Coleman vs Fred Ingram Russian (NKVD)/Russian win
2011-08-07(A) Fred Ingram vs Jeff Coleman Russian (NKVD)/Russian winI gave Jeff the balance (which is huge - replacing the conscripts for NKVD troops - who rally on an 11 if they get to a commissar). I only loaded up building BB16 with enough troops to reduce the required piers down to 4. I would re-think keeping the HMG & MMG's up on 2nd level as sinking boats in the dusk is a pretty dicey business. The firepower would be better used at the point. I was able to get the 2 northern piers and a center pier victory location by turn 3. However, the boats came across relatively unmolested other than a CR result on a squad. (4) boats including the 10-3 came down south while (2) boats went north ignoring the captured piers just to land on the shore. The dusk made all the difference as I still needed to root out the center pier location (containing a gun, 8-1 commissar, and two NKVD squads). The 10-3 led swarm started marching up to retake the 2nd pier from the south. As it was, I could not get the 4th pier for the victory. I thought it was a great scenario.
