Velikiye Luki scenario? - Trac_511 - 02-14-2019

I remember the Velikiye Luki game from the V for Victory series and I came to wonder: Do any of the PzC titles have a Velikiye Luki scenario? Perhaps Moscow 42 or Rhzev 42 but I have neither.

It was the winter of 42-43, correct? - so it would be Rhzev, but it does not have a VL scenario

No he siege was winter 41-42. It appears on the Moscow 42 map as a note. Just 60 km back west.

And the jump map from Moscow 42. The Moscow 42 map is huuuuge stretching from Smolensk to Kolimina but it would need to go further back to reach V-L.

I believe the old V for Victory game was this operation:

which was in conjunction with Operation Mars in December 42

Yes sorry my mistake. You are right. I can't see an embarrassed emoji or I would insert it here.

I'm getting confused with the 41-42 encirclements. (Demyansk and Cholm)
