Rick, designer of this one, and yes I have played it as Soviets a couple of times through and did fine one time and got beat up the other. Will probably even update it too, to make it more playable, if I get some useful feedback on how it played.
I really like the scenario as there are so many 'fronts' that it's hard to know what is going on. I only played it as the Germans against the AI. The AI gave me a game for the first few days but then stopped dead. Perhaps it's units were exhuasted.
In the beginning the Russians were pushing hard all over the place and in a lot of places I was definately on the defensive and in danger of being overwhelmed in spots. The bunkers are really hard for the Russian to attack though so it's unlikely they will take any part of Kharkov or the other city to the SE.
I don't know how it would play out with humans but it certainly is an interesting scenario compared to other large campaign games.
