Battle of Wolomin release

[Tankertony]

Finally, a historical-based effort to satisfy your late-war tank battle desires! I was surprised
to find little to no scenarios based on this epic battle(s) outside Warsaw in the summer of 1944.

This wiki article sums up the scenario I created perfectly: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Radzymin_(1944)
The Battle of Radzymin, also known as the Battle of Wolomin (the name I chose).

Here is the description of the scenario:
[Warsaw, Poland]:[H2][HIS][BZ]
By the end of July, 1944, the Russian Lublin-Brest offensive had brought their armies
to the outskirts of Warsaw. The plan to clear the Polish capital of Nazi forces would
involve a pincer movement composed of three tank corps of the 2nd Tank Army. 3rd
Tank Corps would swing northwest towards the crucial bridge at Zegrze, in an attempt
at turning the German left flank. 8th Guards Tank Corps would move in their wake,
securing the eastern approaches to the city. The 16th Tank Corps would move up and
along the east bank of the Vistula, targeting the southeast approaches.
But the Germans had their own plans. With the Soviet spearheads mere miles from
Zegrze, Field Marshal Model marshaled four understrength panzer divisions, from various
directions, and threw them into the area around Wolomin. On August 1st, elements of
the 19th Panzer division linked up with SS Wiking in the village of Okuniew, effectively
surrounding the 3rd Tank Corps. What followed was a desperate attempt by the other two
tank corps, moving up from the south, to relieve their trapped brothers in the area of
Radzymin and Wolomin. Although assisted by the 125th Rifle corps and the 6th Guards
Cavalry Corps, the Russians were unable to rescue the 3rd Tank Corps, it being effectively
destroyed as a combat unit.
This battle was, until that time, the largest tank battle fought on Polish soil. It also
coincided with the Warsaw uprising, which began on August 1st. These events had no
immediate bearing on the Wehrmachts operation to the east, and as such I've effectively
fixed the units in and around Warsaw city proper. Can the German player cut off and destroy
the 3rd Tank Corps? Can the Russian player rescue them and throw the Germans back into
Warsaw?

So, this is NOT THE OFFICIAL RELEASE but my first initial unofficial release. A bit more play-
testing to go, so if you'd like, download it, check it out, make suggestions, or join the upcoming
multi-player playtest game. The included text doc has the specs and various number statistics for 
each side. 

I didn't particularly design it as such, but this can be an excellent multi-player team game.
2 on 2.

One German player can take the panzer corps to the west (Hermann Goring Panzer and 19th
Panzer division_), and the other can take the panzer corps to the east (5th SS Wiking Panzer division,
4th Panzer Division, and a reinforced regiment of the 3rd SS Totenkopf panzer division).

The Russians can have one player playing the ultimately doomed 3rd Tank Corps, and probably the
14th Tank Corps moving up the Vistula. The other Russian player will have the powerful 8th
Guards Tank Corps, the 125th Motorized Rifle Corps, and the 6th Guards Cavalry Corps.

This scenario starts off like a firecracker, fire and action everywhere, a couple of turns before
the German link up, and then the scheisse really hits the fan. Fun stuff. Historical. Enjoy.
