New scenario for PB Kursk: #0714_02 Pravorot: The Last Chance

[Crossroads]

Hi everyone, Alan sent me a new scenario he's prepared for Panzer Battles Kursk as part of the set of scenarios he's been working with around Kursk.

Here's the briefing:

#0714_02 Pravorot: The Last Chance

Pravorot, South of Prokhorovka, July 14th, 1943 (Scenario Size: Division, German Human vs Soviet AI or Head to Head) 

With the LAH and Totenkopf SS Panzergrenadier Divisions severely depleted from the previous three days of combat and on the defensive, it was now Das Reich's turn to try and take Prokhorovka. The division had suffered he fewest casualties on the 12th and its front was relatively quiet on the 13th. On the 14th it was ordered to attack east with the initial objective being the town of Belenikhino and its train station, then proceed northeast to Hill 217.3, then from there proceed to the final objective of the day, the town of Pravorot. The 167th Infantry Division to its right was to launch supporting attacks to keep Russian units to the south from reinforcing the fight to the north.

The attack started at 6:00AM  with units from the "Deutschland" SS Panzergrenadier Regiment leading the way, and by noon the initial objectives had been captured. The attack then bogged down all afternoon, finally resuming about 5:00 PM, this time with tank support from the "Das Reich" SS Panzer Regiment. By 10:00PM the division had taken Hill 217.3 but was too exhausted to continue the attack into the night towards Pravorot, despite being ordered to by the II SS Panzer Corps. The attack would be resumed the following morning.

If you spot anything peculiar let me know. Unfortunately I don't own the Kursk game myself so there might be some errors in the scenario entry, for instance.
