Introduction |
---|
Once the rains had let up along the Oder front, the Soviets began fresh offensive operations. The Germans had brought up a handful of fresh troops, but were scraping the bottom of their manpower barrel: facing 8th Guards Tank Army were trainees formed into a new division, politically suspect special forces troops thrown into regular duty, and Ge. A.A. Vlasov's legion of Russian traitors in German uniform. |
Conclusion |
---|
The large-scale Soviet attack floundered in the face of an unusually heavy German artillery barrage, tank destroyers firing from cover and fanatic individual tank-hunting by the Russian mercenaries. Artillery fire separated the Red Army's infantry from the tanks, and their former comrades-in-arms made the tankers pay a heavy price for lack of protecting foot soldiers. By afternoon the Germans were confident enough to mount a counter-attack, which also fell apart under heavy artillery fire. |

Not sure the Axis side should be shown as German & Soviet Union v Soviet Union. The Axis forces have elements of the RUSSIAN National liberation army and use reduced SS pieces. I think the 'Soviet Union' Nomenclature for side 1 should be got rid of as misleading. (vince hughes

The morale and combat modifiers of German Sergeant #1614 should be "0", not "8". (Shad
