Polevaya, 20km NW of Kharkov: [Best played against Human opponent] Following their failure and withdrawal from Kursk in July of 43, the German armies in the south of Russia again found themselves facing a crisis at Kharkov and along the Donets River. Prevented from reaching Kharkov from the east, the Soviets next tried their luck from the northwest. Except for a narrow corridor the city was now encircled. The famous 5th Guards Tank Army, led by the 12th Tank Brigade, hurled itself toward the hotly contested metropolis of the Donets Basin. Rushing to meet them near Polevaya, were elements of the decorated 3rd Panzer Division.

A must for armored warfare fans!
Requires a Russian player with a good sense of Russian equipment capabilities to make it competitive.
Fairly difficult for the Russians once the German's establish themselves.
Good Solid Scenario.
Faith Divides Us, Death Unites Us.
Against equal players it will probably be an Axis win most of the time.
