And here is the final situation. East part of the map:

and the West part of the map:

My overeagerness with initial advance costed me dearly (full T-80B battalion going down in 10 min), though I was in hurry to get into Rinteln before your reinfocements arrive. MiG pilots saved the day there basically.
Nice use of smoke. Also you did very well with your ATGM positioning, heavily deniying my advance to the west.
Great game, glad you liked it too.

And now we can see the battle step by step.

1 Red tanks tried to attack and were destroyed

2 More powerful attack in the North and Center with tanks and infantry

3 Red tanks bypassed the position of Blue troops in Rinteln. Blue ATGM reinforcement have arrived

4 Blue infantry have arrived. The close combat in the cities

5 Red side have control Rinteln and trying to attack to the West, but have to troops for good result. The battle between Red and Blue tank for Rinteln bridge

Nice battle! Well played!

Good Hunting.
