Overview:

The past couple of days had seen horrific fighting at the Stalingrad-1 Rail Station. On the morning of 16 September, the 1st Battalion of the 42nd Guards Regiment turned away an attack by twelve self-propelled guns with supporting infantry. Not long after the Germans renewed the attack, starting with a fierce bombardment by Stukas and artillery that "buckled the girders and blew down the walls". The a large force of tommy-gunners supported by some twenty self-propelled guns began to advance towards the Guardsmen, heralding yet another round of bloody close quarter combat.
Attacker: German (Infanterie Regiment 191, Infanterie Division 71 / StuG Abteilung 244)

2025-04-18(A) Tuomo Lukkari vs Teemu Lukkari Russian winGerman was too agressive- all required stone hexes controlled but heavy armoe losses pushed the Germans over teh CVP cap and Russian won. Great slugfest!
2022-05-15(D) Jesus Pie vs Toze Santos Russian winRussian victory in the last turn, thanks a T34 CH vs a HD Stug. A great scenario
2018-03-12(D) Tom Kearney vs Al Saltzman Russian winI packed the station with 6-2-8s and a 10-0 Comissar, and reinforced the throughout the fight. The Germans eventually gained a foothold in the station but were pushed out in a counterattack. MOLs killed three tanks with another going down to a 45LL crit. At the bottom of the 4th Al’s personal morale failed and the Germans conceded.
2015-11-04(D) Russell Dewhurst vs Daniel S Russian win
2013-01-25(A) Richard Carter vs Stephen M Russian winI lost on CVP cap. We actually would have taken the station likely and the requisite stone locations but had 61 CVP when one of my tanks was destroyed on a street fighting ambush and he got my 10-2 armor leader w/ him. Ugghh! Anyway, I will say it got a bit tedious toward the end.
