The 5th Pz Division at Rzhev

Post by kevinkins »

Here is a small tutorial size scenario based loosely on history. It takes the player away from the Stalingrad sector to the North. There are some rough edges, but it is playable. Please send me a message with any ideas for improvements. There is room to expand the battle into a larger encounter. Playable from both sides vs. the AI. I believe the Soviets have the advantage in an email game. But it's quick to play to find out. Thanks, and enjoy. Suggestions are welcome.

Map used but not a lot of detail.

That was fun and just my size! I admit I did cheat a bit and looked at how you had everything setup in the editor. But I was able to wipe out the 13th Tank Corps.
I played a Stalingrad game about 30 years ago, made by King of Prussia I think, the thing had 1000 counters and the entire map was all of southern Russia and covered the floor of my living room. Unplayable monster. I never played the major scenarios but I did really enjoy a small scenario where Alarmeinheiten defended the Chir river crossing following the failure of Wintergewitter. Maybe I could make a short and sweet scenario of it.

You are in luck. Working on Chir River/Sowchos 79 now.
