The Soviet set up had mines on each flank of Cherkasskoye, forcing movement through the town, which was fortified, or pushing through the minefields themselves. The Germans pushed the majority of their infantry towards Cherkasskoye, while the engineers went to the right, followed by the majority of the German armor. The Soviets set up primarily around the town hexes on maps 40 and 43, with an ATG screen on map 43. Panthers were consistently bad, losing 7 steps overall. The minefileds were not, however, with the Germans losing only 3 steps to them. The German engineers were targeted often and suffered 6 step losss by games ended. The German right hook, though, pushed through the minefileds, swept through the Soviet flanks, took Butovo and then swept back in the rear of the Soviet positions. German reinforcements headed to exit upon entering in turn 8. The Germans won the towns (in the last two turns), cleared the roads and exited 26 steps. German victory.
