What ever happened to "The First Blitzkrieg?"

[bdtj1815]

Re:Kharkov43: Whilst there is the much better known 3rd Battle of Kharkov, aka "Manstein's Backhand Blow" I actually meant the 4th Battle of Kharkov which was the Russian offensive in August 1943 which finally liberated what must be the most fought over city in WWII, certainly over the longest time. I would also be interested to see a really good 3rd Kharkov but I think it would need a considerably larger, possibly too large, a map to do the campaign justice.

I sometimes feel we track the events of WWII from one well known battle/campaign to another, ie in the East: Smolensk-Typhoon-Stalingrad-Kursk-Bagration-Warsaw, and forget that a lot was going on elsewhere. I am looking at some less obvious campaigns fought over the maps already available to us in existing games which would make interesting scenarios (AGC in the summer/autumn of 1943 for instance). I have one or two other ideas but will probably try and decide which to do shortly. If anyone has some suggestions or would like to help get in touch.
