I need some testers for a Kursk Campaign
Posted: Tue Nov 06, 2001 3:53 am
I need around 4 guys who will play individual scenarios (many of them are BIG), and if I could get 2 super stars who are willing to suffer through an extremely long campaign (likely with many bugs) I would be very lucky and thankful.
This is the same campaign I've been working on forever. It covers the Zitadelle offensive, 3rd SS Panzergrenadier Division Totenkopf's advance from belgorod to north of the river Psel. It includes some ahistorical results if you do well enough, and is, in all likelyhood MUCH more intense than what actually ocurred. I'm trying to make an extremely challenging campaign that has an ENORMOUS core force with little rebuild points.
The battles so far are the following:
1. Opening Moves: Breaking through the frontline north and west of Belgorod with the objective of driving north, securing the 2nd SS Pz Korps' right flank, and securing the town of Gremuchii.
2. Gonki - Erik: Widening the salient made on the first day by 2nd SS Pz Korps.
3. Visloya - Ternovka: Defending the long eastern flank of the advance (or attacking, depending on the level of success so far).
4. Banks of the Psel: After being relieved by the 167th (I think) Infantry Division you roll northward and attack toward the banks of the Psel River and try to take the town of Krasnyi Oktabir.
5. Hill 226.6: After securing a bridgehead over the Psel the infantry push north up the face of hill 226.6, while the rest of your forces push east along the river.
6. North of the Psel: On the day of the famed Prokhorovka battles the 3rd SS PzGren must push north and east in an effort to flank and/or displace resistance of the Prokhorovka forces.
If you do really well you can play a few other scenarios that allow a hypothetical encirclement of the 5th Guards Tank Army and a quick dash north to a town called Tim thereby successfully achieving the objectives of the Zitadelle offensive.
The core force, by the way, is suggested to be 9 ss pzgren platoons, 1 co pziv's, 1 plt ac's, 3 bttys of SPA, 2 spaa plt, 1 spmortar plt, a few FO's, the self-propelled regimental 150's and a few other forces. It's basically one battalion from one of the PzGren Rgts (loosely following Rgt Eike's path in the operation) with the self-propelled bn of the arty rgt, the regimental guns, and the co of tanks was just so you get some tanks.
