Introduction

Both the German Tenth Army and Russian Tenth Army stationed their cavalry on the northern end of their line to guard their open flank. On the morning of 8 February, Evgeny A. Leontovich, commanding the Russian cavalry, ordered them forward to probe the German flank. The Germans had attacked the Tenth Army’s southern flank; were they planning to do the same here? Yes, they were.

Conclusion

The Russian advance met German cavalry advancing toward them, resulting in a confused meeting engagement. German-language accounts don’t mention this fight; neither side pressed their advance and the Russians returned to their lines alerted to German activity. But they had no idea of the scale of the German onslaught to come.

Additional Notes

Counters and maps from the first edition of August 1914 will work in place of those components of the second edition.

Maps from Eastern Front Deluxe or Panzer Grenadier: The East front may be used in place of those from Fire in the Steppe.

The German Oberleutnant should be a Leutnant. The Hauptmann should be Rittmeisters.
