Marina Gorki, 70 kms SE of Minsk, June 29th 1944: The Soviet ring had closed round Bobruysk. Elements of the battered German 9th Armee were trying to break out to the NW, but masses of Russian units were preventing this happening. Hitler had reluctantly released the 12th Pz Division from AG Ukraine, they had arrived by train and had unloaded in the Marina Gorki area. Their orders were to keep the path open for any survivors, but it was a "last ditch effort". The Soviets were determined to smash this block and move on to Minsk.

Came right down to the last turn with Germans holding on to the last ditch in the 250vp objectives. I got the minor on casualties, not objectives....great play by Tet2 in a tough situation.
Quick and successful crossing of the river by Soviet armored forces near the center victory hex is imperative to Soviet success here.
