Intended for play as Russian vs. AI
Designer Notes: This scenario simulates the first two days of the 11th Guards and 50th Armies attack against the German positions.
Scenario Briefing: The main objective of the northern attack of the Orel salient, after breaching the German lines, was to head towards Bolkhov. The intent was to pocket the German units defending In that sector of the Orel salient. A secondary objective was to head towards Karachev to cut the communications between Orel and Bryansk. To achieve this breakout, the Soviet High Command assigned the 11th Guards Army under the command of General Bagramyan. The 11th Guards Army was a powerful, fresh, and rested formation that had to penetrate the lines of the LIII.AK of General Cloessner and the LV.AK of General Jaeschke. The LIII.AK had the 5th Panzer Division in reserve in the Krapvina area. The 11th Guards Army was assisted by the 50th Army, which was to support the breakout by pinning the LV.AK in place and defending the flank of 11th Guards Army. The Western Front, which controlled the attack, also had the 1st and 5th Tank Corps in the second echelon to support the expected breakthrough.
