The Competition & Teaser Thread

I also had my doubts, also about how straight the battlefield is, but it was the only battle I could think of at the time that could be it, also because of how the map was "cut" in the northwest.

As to it being Ponyri: keep in mind that the dimensions of the main map were posted a while ago, and those could only cover the southern part.

It's difficult to pinpoint due to the major road: it goes more or less north/south, but at the moment I can't find a suitable location for where the road is supposed to be. If I had Kursk '43, it would be easier to spot I guess.

Furthmore, Prokhorovka is also one of the few places where there was no Soviet infantry in front of the attacking Soviet armour. At the right flank of Kempf's advance, there was Soviet infantry. Slightly below Prokhorovka facing 167th ID, there was Soviet infantry. The German line heading back west is also difficult to pinpoint as that would point to the right flank of Kempf, but then we go back to there being no Soviet infantry.

I also don't know what the second large river is in the southeast.

It's odd, all the other information could point to south flank Kursk, but this fairly straight frontline with the major road to the east of German positions is peculiar. My only other guess at the moment is that it could be the start of Rumyantsev.
