Overview:

While the Tridentina led the vanguard of the Alpini Corps’ attempts to break out of the Russian encirclement, the Cuneense Division served as the rear guard, repeatedly fighting off Soviet pursuers so that the main body could press on to the west and possible safety. The front of the column, realizing the town ahead was occupied by the enemy, diverted to Nikolajewka. Unfortunately, the Italians had no working long range radios left, and the only way for the Alpinis’ chief of staff to get in touch with the following divisions was through messenger or personal contact. These efforts failed. The result was that on January 20, 1943, major elements of the Julia and Cuneense Divisions ran head on into strong elements of the encircling Soviet forces.
Attacker: Italian (4 Divisione Alpini "Cuneense")
Defender: Russian (250th Cavalry Regiment, 8th Guards Cavalry Division and Local Partisans)

2022-07-24(D) Richard Jenulis vs Brent Morris Russian win[Italian balance] The Italians crept along the south edge. The Russian did not bring in any of their turn 5 reinforcements. On the last turn, the Italians had 14 points in range to exit. Then General Battisi, who was leading the charge, when berserk and took the remaining unbroken squad with him.
2022-06-26(A) Dave Mareske vs Dan Best Russian win
2022-06-25(D) Dan Best vs Dave Mareske Russian winThe Italian rear guard MMG broke on the first shot and squads frequently ELR reduced. By the last turn the Italians needed to exit 9 VP and had 9 VP remaining. Four VP broke attempting to exit. This scenario is very hard on the Italians.
