"Korsun Salient", 120kms SE Kiev, January 25th 1944: The German Army in Korsun Salient held tight to the Dnepr River. It was Hitler's grand idea that this hold on the Dnepr would be needed to launch the next great offensive into the Soviet Union. Of course such plans were mad raves of the deranged dictator. But this order to HOLD would prevent the Germans from performing a mass retreat to avoid the encirclement by the Soviet pincers. In this respect, this scenario represents a fairly accurate historical situation using FIXED German forces, north of the operational areas. The Axis player cannot retreat against Hitler's orders and a pocket will likely be formed. [Size very large] Designers Note: This scenario is best played H2H, as the fixed troops will prevent a mass German retreat causing no pocket to be formed.

Playing as the German, I was grounded from making the counter offensive due to high AFV losses due to the mud rules.
Fun playing the germans, in that way that the Russians have no chance. Need total rebalance.
