Date: August 11th, 1943 - Size: Medium - Location: South of Bogodukhov
Intended for play as Russian vs. AI or HTH
Designer Notes: This scenario describes the fighting between the Totenkopf and Das Reich SS Divisions and the Soviet 1st Tank and 5th Guards Tank Armies.
Scenario Briefing: German command planned a counterattack in the Bogodukhov area to regain the initiative and close the gap between PzAOK.4 and the now re-named AOK.8, formerly Armee-Abteilung Kempf. The issue was how to concentrate German armored units with the speed needed to attack the Soviet lines of advance; the 1st Tank Army had already left the infantry units of the 6th Guards and 27th Armies far behind. The Germans managed to position themselves just in time with the units intended to attack from the south. The III.PzK had three divisions of the SS (Totenkopf, Das Reich and Viking) and a weakened 3rd Panzer Division. Without waiting for the XXIV.PzK to attack from the north, the SS divisions of the III.PzK advanced with the initial objective to expel the Soviet units from the vital railway line that united Poltava with Kharkov and to recover the north bank of the rivers Merla and Merchik. This scenario describes these first movements of the Totenkopf and Das Reich Divisions, which, after the fighting in the area south of the Kursk salient, meet once again with the 5th Guards Tank Army, left much weaker after that confrontation.
Recommended Rules: (Default)
Alternative Assault Resolution, Artillery Set Up, Recon Spotting, Virtual Supply Trucks, Low Visibility Air Effects, Quality Fatigue Modifier, Counterbattery Fire, Night Fatigue, Programmed Weather, Limited Air Recon.
