Northern Salient
Historical Background:
Among the battles of Operation "CITADEL", it was at Ponyri that the most ferocious battles were fought, the most fierce 
and bloodiest. Turning the place into "little Stalingrad". From 6 to 9 July, the fights for the school, the tractor 
depot, the water tower, the station were merciless. On 7 July alone, the Village changed 5 times of camp. From west to 
east, the 292 and 86th ID as well as the 78th DA began to attack, not expecting a fiercely resistance. The German units 
were supported by a multitude of armored vehicles: tanks, assault cannons, Tank hunters. The main strike force was the 90 
Ferdinand of the 656th Heavy Tank hunters Regiment (Regiment that contained all these new armed monsters).The Russian 
units in the area belonged to the 29th Rifle Corps of the 13th Army. The 15th and 81st in the first line. Behind them was 
the 307th division (the division that initially defended Ponyri). In 307th Division, the Russians had massed an artillery 
concentration far superior to that normally to an infantry division. Moreover, everything that the Russians could muster 
as troops was thrown away in the fighting. The Germans encountered a multitude of defensive points, connected trenches,
to anti-tank batteries, to whole companies of Tanks buried and entrenched, supported in the air by Sturmoviks and Yaks.

The stage is set, the battle lines are drawn, and you are in command. The rest is history.
