Overview:

The German offensive to retake Kharkov put the Russian Voronezh Front in disarray. Shortages of fuel and ammo hampered the Russians. The siutation got worse on March 13th when the Grossdeutschland Division attacked north of Kharkov along the seam between the 40th and 69th Armies. Penetrating deep into the Russian lines, the armored elements, including a company of Tigers, turned northeast in the direction of Tomarovka. The Russian command committed the 3rd Guards Tank Corps to slow down the German advance.
Attacker: Russian (3rd Guards Tank Corps)

2023-05-13(A) Andreas R vs Jenny German win
2022-11-23(A) Craig Renier vs Bob W Russian winThis was an introduction to AFVs for the German player. The Russian first turn nearly all the AFVs in motion, hoping to avoid an easy DFF shot on Turn 2. The German AFVs moved on board well, but realized the initial German plan offered a potential exit along the East flank. The Russians took early advantage of the opening. The Germans react as well as possible and are able to use their superior firepower to start wrecking the Russian AFVs. However, the Russians were able to move quickly towards the weak side and successfully exited the required AFVs for a victory.
2022-10-12(A) Owen Edwards vs Russian winSimilar to the previous play. Russians are able to get good terrain on their first turn, and the Germans found it hard to counterbalance both this and the numbers issue. Combine that with low German THs and it was more of a rout than the previous game.
2022-09-19(A) Owen Edwards vs Russian winFirst time pushing around AFVs. Definitely got some rules wrong! Key moments, though, were the T1 events on the left hand side of the board, as a Tiger saw its MA malf (and X on repair attempt) and a IVF2 get blown up by a CH as it hid in one of the buildings in the south-west. Though the Germans did take out 5 Soviet tanks, they lost another two (both IVF2s; a Tiger and a IVF2 were left on the board at the end), with there just not being coverage or firepower to stop the other Russian tanks escaping - equivalent 8-5 to the Russians.
2022-08-05(A) Will Allred vs G. E. Russian winGiven the lopsided ROAR we played with the Russian balance. I worry it’s too powerful. Entering with their full MP the Russians were able to reach very dominating terrain in the first turn for their support-by-fire elements and the maneuver element was able to dart deep down the map. With what seemed to be some fairly average DRs I killed one Tiger, immobilized the other, wrecked two PzIVs, and had 5 or so T-34s exited by the end of turn 3. I’ll be curious to see whether anyone else sees similar results when using the balance.
