Greetings all,
I have been putting the finishing touches on the Road to Moscow Series for 3.4. This is a series of eight linked scenarios of the Barbarossa campaign 22 June 41 to early Feb 42, with one-day, 10 km/hex, mostly division-sized units, varying in length from 13 to 60 turns.

Scenarios are Crossing the Border, Smolensk, Guderian turned South, Kiev, Vyasma-Bryansk, At the Gates, Counterattack! and What If?

I have loaded them to Rapid Share and will be posting them in the next few days. I will appreciate any feedback, AAR, and comments.

Excellent! Looking forward to them.

Very glad that you were able to work on these. I look forward to trying out the revised editions.

I. Crossing the Border
The German side needs to reach the Berizina River crossings by 3 July...

Sehr gut! I shall beta-test it at once! The 29.Inf.Div(Mot) issue with one of it's Rgt without trucks in the 2nd scenario got fixed, aye?

Here is the second of the Road to Moscow Series- II. Smolensk, that covers 3.7.41 to 30.7.41. David Glantz just published Barbarossa Derailed- the Battle for Smolensk that covers this period, and makes a good companion read.
This scenario PO programs the historic German and Soviet strategies, and allows the player to explore the operational alternatives.
Naturally any comments and suggestions are welcomed.

III.Guderian Moves South
The battle of Smolensk is over, but he Road to Moscow becomes progressively more difficult. Hitler decides to forgo a direct attack toward Moscow and diverts Guderian's panzer group to attack southward toward to Kiev...
This scenario covers the period 1-25 August.
