Moscow area, Nov 15th 1941: The main historical campaign game for Operation Typhoon. On November 15, 1941, the German forces arrayed in front of the Russian capital kicked off what would be the last serious attempt to take Moscow. The operation was doomed to failure for a multitude of reasons, including the vicious weather, large amounts of fresh Russian troops, and friction of fighting at the end of a 2000 kilometer supply line. Still, the Germans came incredibly close to Moscow itself before the Russian counterattack pushed them back. [Size, large]
