RE: Simple Panzer Grenadier system (variant)
Simple Panzer Grenadier scenario
Rendulic the Ready
Russian assault, rifle army forces with heavy tank support vs German infantry division defense
July 1943, east face of Orel salient early in Operation Kutuzov
Steppe terrain with low ridges, Germans set up on higher ground, Russians initially in defilade behind first ridge.
German defenders set up first, anywhere but the first 10-hex width Russian start map
3 75mm PAK 6-8 AT rating, dug in
3 HMG platoon, dug in (foxholes)
6 5-3 infantry platoon with foxholes
2 81mm mortar platoons on map, 10+ ammo depletion, may be dug in
1 105mm howitzer off map in dedicated support, 11+ ammo depletion
12 wire obstacle hexes
6 tank ditch obstacle hexes (impassible to vehicles)
secretly record 3 AT minefield locations (bombardment factor 30)
secretly record 9 AP minefield locations (bombardment factor 8)
reinforcements arrive turn 8 as a line reinforcement on the German defended map edge
3 5-3 infantry platoons
morale 7, shaken 10 steps, demoralized 15 steps
Russians set up second within 3 hexes of their map edge (7 hexes from start of German set up zone), behind first higher ground.
3 KV-1 platoons (5 armor rating)
9 4-2 infantry platoons
3 HMG platoons
3 82mm mortar platoons
3 pioneer infantry platoons
1 122mm howitzer support off board, 9+ ammo depletion number
Turn 5, line reinforcement 3 4-2 infantry platoons
morale 7, shaken 13 steps, demoralized 20 steps.
Time limit 20 turns.
Germans earn 2 VPs for each KV step destroyed, 1 for each other Russian step destroyed.
Russians earn 1 VP for each German step destroyed.
Russians each 1 VP for each Russian tank or infantry step (not HMGs or mortars) exited off the German map edge by the time limit.
This is a good scenario to learn combined arms tactics in the revised system.
Using 50% dummies for the mines, it can also be played solo as the Russians.
