Overview:

Hoping that one last great push might be enough to finally shatter all organized resistance in the city, German assault troops prepared for a final onslaught. In the meantime, fresh Pioniere battalions specially trained in urban warfare were flown in, to be supported by a dozen experimental assault guns boasting a 150mm gun. Each frontline German division formed a Sturmkompanie comprised of 150 select men heavily-laden with automatic weapons. The Russians, discerning the Germans’ intentions, busily braced for the expected encounter, turning every pile of rubble and blasted building they still held into a formidable fortress. On 11 November, daybreak came early at 0300 hours as a heavy fusillade of German artillery shells lit up the night, to open the final bid to capture Stalingrad.- - - - -It's big. Possibly the biggest single scenario in the system. Initially 80 or so Russian squads hold off around a similar number of German elite and first line squads. There's OBA, trenches, pillboxes over the entire RB Map. Oh and 21 turns for the Germans to control a whole host of buildings and a couple of factories.
Attacker: German (Gruppe Schwerin, Infanterie Division 94 and 389 and Pioniere Bataillone 45 and 162/StuG Abteilung 244 and 245/Panzerpionier Bataillon 50/Panzer Regiment 36)
Defender: Russian (138th and 95th Rifle Divisions/1053rd Rifle Regiment, 300th Rifle Division/Reserves of the 62nd Army/179th Engineer Company)
