Overview:
Army Group North's advance was threatening to isolate Leningrad. Recently transferred from Army Group Center, General der Panzertruppe Rudolf Schmidt's XXXIX Armeekorps was driving hard towards Volkhov. One of Schmidt's divisions, Infanterie-Division (mot.) 20, captured the city of Mga on 29 August. Reinforces by the 1st NKVD Rifle Division, the Soviet 48th Army retook Mga on 30 August, only to be thrown back out the next day. On 2 September, the 48th Army attacked yet again, looking to recapture the Mga Railroad Station. Control of the railroad was critical, as it was the last direct rail line through which supplies flowed to Leningrad. The assault would be carried out by a battalion of the 1st NKVD Rifle Division reinforced by two tank companies and a brigade of mountain troops.Attacker: Russian (NKVD) (2nd Battalion, 2nd NKVD Regiment, 1st NKVD Rifle Division with 1st Separate Mountain Rifle Brigade)
Defender: German (Infanterie-Regiment (mot.) 90, Infanterie-Division (mot,) 20)

| 2025-01-23 | (A) Robert Wiebe | vs | German | Russian (NKVD) win (VASL Log) | 3.33 hrs | German set up forward and had a decent first turn, but then seemed incapable of shooting Russians. Overwhelming assault firing 527s, coupled with NKVD 628s on top of that, saw the German pushed back out of the VC area. Game ended on the Russian Turn 5. | |

| 2024-10-13 | (A) Kevin Duval | vs | Dwayne Duval | A | German win | Russians went strong along north side and rolled down the flank but ran out of time in the end. I pushed a platoon of AFV into the center which cost me when the time came to try and extricate them from the restricting terrain using reverse in bypass ... still, fun! |
