Overview:

By 0930 the Germans’ first objective, the north-south railroad embankment west of the factory, had been reached. The attack plan then called for a brief interlude to allow fresh troops of the second wave to come up and for continued bombardment of the next objective – the imposing halls of the factory itself. Meanwhile, the bloodied survivors of Guriev’s 39th Guards Rifle Division, tasked with defending those wrecked shops and workstations, dressed their wounds, all the while enduring unhealthy amounts of German high explosives. Suddenly, a few minutes past 1000, piercing whistles announced that the Wehrmacht troops were once again advancing – this time taking their second step.
Attacker: German (Infanterie-Regiment 212 and Sturmgeschütz-Abteilung 244)
Defender: Russian (112th Guards Rifle Regiment, 39th Guards Rifle Division with 69th Anti-Tank Battalion and Factory Militia)

2022-01-26(A) Dan Best vs Kermit Mullins Russian win
2022-01-26(D) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best Russian winA very fun and tough scenario. Luck favored my Russian as Dan's Germans blasted forward. I had placed the 6 x 4-2-6's in the Plate Mill and expected them to go down fast. But they didnt'. They held for four turns. And one 4-2-6 would kill 3 x German squads in Close Combat and then battle-harden to a 4-4-7 and survive the battle. By the end of Turn 6-1/2 it was a clear Russian Victory as only the Plate Mill had fallen to the Germans. The Germans would lose two officers to snipers and roughly 9 squads. The Russians would lose roughly 12 squads. Fun scenario.
2021-11-17(D) David Ramsey vs Toby Pilling Russian winI beat one of the UK's best players, playing fairly poorly (no tunnels, probably misplaced mines and a very static defence) with poor dice and the rocket OBA was pretty devastating. The stukas arrived early but never had a great opportunity to do very much. It was close, but it seems almost impossible for the Germans to win this one. Wasn't a terrible experience though. The scenario was pretty fun, but don't expect too many German wins.
2021-06-05(A) Dwayne Duval vs Kevin Duval Russian win
2021-06-01(D) Kevin Duval vs Dwayne Duval Russian winUsed German balance. Hard luck for the Germans, no Smoke from Mortar attempts and Stug got caught PB of AT Gun for burning wreck. Stukas did not arrive until Turn 5 which was much too late to help the stalled attack. Russians kept them contained in their first VC building & prevented any break out from there. Fun for me as Russians, frustration only for my opponent.
