Intended for play as either side vs. AI or HTH
Designer Notes: A two division Soviet assault on the 34.Infanterie Division's deep fortifications on the east bank of the Neruch river.
Scenario Briefing: Msensk was a city on the banks of the Neruch River that was an important part of the XXXV.AK defensive line. General Rendulic had stationed General Hochbaum's 34.Infanterie Division in what had been a quiet sector of the front. The Division had a bridgehead on the other side of the river that protected the approaches that led to Msensk from the east. The bridgehead was protected by powerful fortifications that the Germans had constructed over many months. The positions consisted of trenches and bunkers surrounded by minefields. General Rendulic ordered the 34.Infanterie Division to defend the town and fortifications on the east bank. For the two divisions of the Soviet 3rd Army tasked with the assault on the city of Msensk, it was going to be a great challenge to reduce and capture the bridgehead despite having carefully prepared this attack and having significant artillery and air support.
