Overview:

The Soviets occupied a small bulge on the west side of the Don River centered on the small town of Kotovskiy. Daily, both sides launched small attacks to expand their position or to recover what had just been lost. Tired of the back and forth, and knowing that the Don defense needed to be an established position before the mud and snow came, the Germans and Italians together planned a combined pincer assault towards Kotovskiy. The Germans would attack from the right with both Infanterie-Division 79 and Panzer-Division 22, while the Italians attacked from the left.
Attacker: Italian (Val Chiese Alpini Battalion, Sforzesca Division and 67th Tank Battalion with Vestone Alpini Battalion)
Defender: Russian (63rd Army)

2018-09-16(A) rene cote vs Cdoary DrawDraw because had to pack up before finishing at end of turn 5. Italians had one turn left, had Control of one of two VC bldgs with melee ongoing in both.
Also brought tanks through flank woods risking bog with good success. Still was relatively lucky in VBM freezing multiple russkys without ever getting flamed by a MOL and finding the ATG which broke in IF without taking a tank.
2018-04-14(A) Allen Evenson vs Sam Belcher Russian winPushed a bit too hard 2nd turn after a very slow first turn and managed to get most of my North forces broken. Rallied but made it really tough to get to the VC Buildings in time. Had slight chances but could not do it. One tank who tried the woods bogged. Rest went down center road, all eventually were destroyed or recalled. AT Gun was where I thought it would be.
