Thoughts on Uranus SS variant?

RE: Thoughts on Uranus SS variant?
I don't see an advance on the "Iron Division" as a threat at all. While my German opponent did not try this tactic, I fail to see how the German 384th Inf Div could possiblly destroy the division without allowing itself to be pulled forward so far that it will never get to the pocket. In addition, 4 Gd Rifle can be there with a Rgt or so in a day, and more if needed via the northern ferry.

I have only played one game as German (turn 70+) and one as Soviet (turn 35+), and my opponent did not try this tactic, nor did I as the Germans. I can say I barely escaped with the three divisions of XI korps. If the Germans get aggressive with this division the Soviets should be pleased as the 384, 44 and 376 Inf Divs are units that can escape the Don Fronts short encirclement and 5 Tank's larger one. If the Germans get overly aggressive with this division, the Russians should be able to make them pay. Finally, is it a good trade for the Russians to lose the Iron Div in trade for the Germans loss of the 384th? I would suspect so.
