Thoughts on Uranus SS variant?

[Aolain]

Well, playing the Russian in the SS to the Rescue campaign with Hadge, I have been forced to conced the game even before the SS came into the picture:hissy:

Hadge attacked my forces from the beginning of the game. The real power of this tactic was that it completely threw me off track. Here you are expecting to advance against the perficious Hitlerites and your opponent extracts his panzer divisions from the city and has at you with a vengance!!

My northern flank, just north of Stalingrad was pierced and decimated, with elements of my army isolated against the Don. To the south, I was given a bloody nose, and my forces just south of the city were, to put it mildly, cut to ribbons.

With that said, The Germans can do a thing or two in this campaign. I think that if this were the standard senario I might have soldiered on, knowing there was very little in the German arsenal. But with the SS boys just off stage, I knew I would most likely never even complete a encirclement.

Over all and exellent (if abreviated) campaign against a determined, agressive, and capable opponent.
