SE side of the Rzhev Salient, August 11th 1942: This is best played Head to Head. This scenario poses the question, "what if" the 5th Shock and 33rd Armies had been committed to taking Vyazma, and not been used to support the Rzhev-Sychevka operation. "What if" the 5th Shock had the 5th Tank Corps attached and attacked toward Vyazma along the axis of the Gzhatsk-Vyazma road and railway. Then, "what if", the 33rd Army had attacked NW, across the Sorya river, two days later. Their objective would have been to capture Vyazma and then destroy any pocketed German units. [Size, medium] Designer Note: This version of the Vyazma scenario is designed for more balanced play.

The Axis commander decided to surrender after ruthless Russian attacks surrounded his left flank and threatened to destroy it.
Very challenging for the Russian attack and German defense, seemed for a long time that my Russians were not going to break the German line, then finally they did. Managed to get a hard fought draw. Good scenario.
