"Korsun Pocket", 120kms SE Kiev, February 10th 1944: One huge factor that dominated this battle of encirclement at Korsun is the abominable weather conditions caused by the quick February thaw that brought mud, mud and more mud. While it is true that both sides were equally subjected to these handicaps, the bad weather hit at a when the Germans desperately needed firm ground to give their panzer formation the mobility they required to carry out their mission. This alternative weather scenario examines the breakout attempt with SNOW ground conditions and should make the German side task a little easier, but still offer a challenging situation. [Size large] *Designer Note - this scenario is designed for play without the Optional Programmed Weather Rules. Under the basic weather rules, ground and visibility may still vary but in general, snow ground conditions will normally prevail.
