Overview:

General Hoth's 4th Panzer Army and Army Detachment Kempf were fighting against the 6th Guards Army and Katukov's 1st Tank Army for control of Oboyan, gateway and vital supply railhead for Russian forces in the southern sector of the Kursk salient. After heavy fighting, the Germans managed to breach the 6th Guards Army's line in several areas. Hoth, sensing victory was in his grasp, began to pour his armored columns through the gaps. Elements of the 6th SS-Panzergrenadier Regiment Totenkopf assaulted through a hail of artillery and machine gun fire coming from the heights on the opposite bank of the Psel, capturing the village of Krasny Oktyabr, and establishing a bridgehead on the enemy bank. Russian reserves were scrambled up to stop the Germans at any cost. (see Raging Furnace CH18)

2020-07-15	(A) Jeff B	vs	Steve Etzelmueller	Russian win	My turn for a Turn 1 concession as the full impact of the ridiculous Gun Duel SSR hit home for me. One of those scenarios that looks super cool but plays super dumb.
2015-04-28	(D) nathan wegener	vs	Dave Mareske	German (SS) win	This is a long scenario. Complicated first turn and the reinforcements mean lots of units in play the whole game. I started strong but some great low odds tank shots took my armour out of the game.
2015-04-28	(A) Dave Mareske	vs	Nathan Wegener	German (SS) win
2013-06-27	(D) David Ramsey	vs	Mick Essex	Russian win	Swirling mass of destruction. Crazy game but be careful setting up not knowing if you're going first or not.
2010-10-01	(A) Richard Jenulis	vs	Mark Devries	Russian win	ASLOK 2010 [exact date unknown]
