New scenario for PB Kursk: #0714_02 Pravorot: The Last Chance - Crossroads - 01-09-2019 Hi everyone, Alan sent me a new scenario he's prepared for Panzer Battles Kursk as part of the set of scenarios he's been working with around Kursk. Here's the briefing: #0714_02 Pravorot: The Last Chance Pravorot, South of Prokhorovka, July 14th, 1943 (Scenario Size: Division, German Human vs Soviet AI or Head to Head) With the LAH and Totenkopf SS Panzergrenadier Divisions severely depleted from the previous three days of combat and on the defensive, it was now Das Reich's turn to try and take Prokhorovka. The division had suffered he fewest casualties on the 12th and its front was relatively quiet on the 13th. On the 14th it was ordered to attack east with the initial objective being the town of Belenikhino and its train station, then proceed northeast to Hill 217.3, then from there proceed to the final objective of the day, the town of Pravorot. The 167th Infantry Division to its right was to launch supporting attacks to keep Russian units to the south from reinforcing the fight to the north. The attack started at 6:00AM with units from the "Deutschland" SS Panzergrenadier Regiment leading the way, and by noon the initial objectives had been captured. The attack then bogged down all afternoon, finally resuming about 5:00 PM, this time with tank support from the "Das Reich" SS Panzer Regiment. By 10:00PM the division had taken Hill 217.3 but was too exhausted to continue the attack into the night towards Pravorot, despite being ordered to by the II SS Panzer Corps. The attack would be resumed the following morning.

Unfortunately I don't own the Kursk game myself so there might be some errors in the scenario entry, for instance.

Yes, Alan's done a few other PB Kursk scenarios as well. Do a "Search Scenarios" with Panzer Battles as Ladder and "Arvold" as author, that's the easiest way to list them. Edit: As in: Go to Scenarios page from main menu, select Search Scenarios from there, and in the search form, select Panzer Battles from the Ladder dropdown list, and enter "Arvold" as author. Result page shows you a neat list of all scenarios he's done: https://www.theblitz.club/scenarios/kursk-southern-front/0712-06-hill-237-9/b-15.htm?action=scenario&id=12417 https://www.theblitz.club/scenarios/kursk-southern-front/0712-07-hill-241-1/b-15.htm?action=scenario&id=12418 https://www.theblitz.club/scenarios/kursk-southern-front/0712-08-hill-233-3/b-15.htm?action=scenario&id=12419 https://www.theblitz.club/scenarios/kursk-southern-front/kursk-43-tolstoye-woods-scenario-set-4-scenarios/b-15.htm?action=scenario&id=12412 , including: https://www.theblitz.club/scenarios/kursk-southern-front/0712-05-tolstoye-woods-1/b-15.htm?action=scenario&id=12416 https://www.theblitz.club/scenarios/kursk-southern-front/0713-01-tolstoye-woods-2/b-15.htm?action=scenario&id=12420 https://www.theblitz.club/scenarios/kursk-southern-front/0714-01-tolstoye-woods-3/b-15.htm?action=scenario&id=12421 https://www.theblitz.club/scenarios/kursk-southern-front/0715-01-tolstoye-woods-4/b-15.htm?action=scenario&id=12422 ... and this one: https://www.theblitz.club/scenarios/kursk-southern-front/0714-02-pravorot-the-last-chance/b-15.htm?action=scenario&id=12811 RE: New scenario for PB Kursk: #0714_02 Pravorot: The Last Chance - Strela - 05-16-2019 Battle Kat, Do you have contact details for Alan? I'm preparing an update for Kursk and wanted to check if he has any issue us vetting his scenarios for inclusion in the patch? If he doesn't want the included no issue, but he has done some interesting work.

I have been fully engaged on another project and hadn’t had a chance to follow up. Will be doing that in the next week... David RE: New scenario for PB Kursk: #0714_02 Pravorot: The Last Chance - Crossroads - 06-09-2019 Hi David, I got one more PB Kurks situation from Alan, one that has not so far been uploaded. It covers the battle for the Hill 235.3: -- Hill 235.3 The Next Day Alan R. Arvold Krasnyi Oktabri, West of Prokhorovka, July 13th, 1943. (Scenario Size: Division, German Human vs Soviet AI or Head to Head) The Totenkopf Panzer Regiment managed to reach the Prokhorovka-Kartashevka Road around sunset on the day before. But the long German finger-size saliant was stretched to its limit, with only a company size element on or about the road, and the rest of the panzer regiment, as well as the attached panzer-grenadier battlaions, occupying both sides of the saliant. Facing a total Russian force of over twice their size, the Germans concentrated on defending the gains that they have made the day before as they had no hope of fulfilling their assigned mission of turning east and heading towards Prokhorovka. The Russians for their part, had the mission of pushing back the German saliant, with the primary objective of capturing HIll 226.6 and if possible, the German crossing points on the Psel River. It would be a long and bloody day. -- Ask for a copy once you contact him, or PM me for an email addy of yours I can send it to! Regards Petri |
