Overview:

In August, 1943, fresh from their victory at Kursk, the Russians launched their Belgorod-Kharkov Offensive. Near the end of August, the Russian 5th Guards Tank Army was driving on Korotich in order to cut the Poltava-Kharkov rail line. Defending Korotich was the 2nd SS Panzer Division “Das Reich”. In the seesaw fighting, SS Tigers would go head to head with Guards SU-152’s. Fighting would center on the Kommunar State Farm, which would be taken by the Russians on August 26th with 10 SU-152’s. As night fell on the 27th, the SS Tigers counter-attacked once again.
Attacker: German (SS) (2nd SS Panzer Division "Das Reich")

2025-01-10(D) Dan Best vs Kermit Mullins German (SS) win1.5 hrsFirst to play and post.
2025-01-10(A) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best German (SS) win1.5 hrsFun scenario. Germans had early success and knocked out four of the SU-152's early. But then one Tiger malf'd its MA and then was recalled. The MKIV's held their own, but on Turn 3, the Russians counter-attacked and knocked out both MKIV's and a Tiger. That left only the Tiger with the 9-1. He managed to get a final kill for the win with 5 x SU-152's knocked out. Dan and I reviewed potential changes and felt the German infantry platoon should probably have an MMG instead of an LMG, so that they could potentially paint more targets. They assisted in two tank kills by painting two of the SU-152's.
