Overview:

In the aftermath of Operation CITADEL, Soviet attacks in the Ukraine followed the usual pattern: masses of med and machines thrown at the lines of Panzerkorps III, only to be thrown back by German counterattacks. However each time the new front line would be further west. In an effort to flank the SS divisions defending west of Kharkov, Major General Ivan Galanin’s 4th Guards Army threw more fresh troops at Hoernlein’s “Grossdeutshland” Division.
Attacker: Russian (5th Guards Airborne Division)

2022-12-30(A) Maurizio Mai vs Alessandro De Michelis German winGreat scenario! I opted to push the attack on the right side. Couple of mistakes with the rules, but mainly forgot the VC on the building control (at the end of 4thturn, not Game End), and didn't win twice a 2vs1 CC that would have released a stack and got 3 VCs. German very solid, defence withdrawal tactic well executed. Nice scenario, I would definitely replay it.
2022-10-08(A) Michael Rodgers vs Joe Divine German winThis is a neat scenario for its VC and for both sides being elite. An added plus is the Russians can deploy. It was tough to know who was going to win until the last turn. Ended with German 27 to Russian 18.
2022-06-12(D) Martí Cabré vs Federico Mazzucchelli Russian winRound 5 of Roma 2022. I was the Germans and had a defense in depth, as I did not know which would be the direction of attack. The Russians attacked from the east, with only a few stacks in the center position to pin my units, but I stalled them using dummies. Each turn I managed to fight the withdrawal a little, losing some units but killing lots of Russians. The Russians never stopped running and did not manage to take any building, but managed to keep broken my MTR crew, while the AA MG crew managed to escape with its halftrack. On the last turn many units from both sides managed to exit, for a close score.
2022-01-25(A) Rob MacGinley vs James Short Russian winThe Russians can set up a very nasty Human Wave that busts thru the line and leaves teh Germans responding t o it
I went thru the centre and he was unable to block the move off board
2021-02-21(D) Richard Jenulis vs Greg Rodgers Russian winNWASL Championship 2021. The Russian went all out on their right flank. They took 6 VP of buildings for the turn four contition. The Germans did not have enough EVP on turn 7 to equal or better the Russians. IMO the Russians can win without the ability to deploy.
