Scenario KurS014

3 PzlllJs, a HMG, a SCH and a leader on the left, then again the same on the right with everybody else coming up the middle. The Schars leading the way, 3 schars in 3 rows leaping ahead searching for mines with each action segment with the PzlVF2s and the PzlVH holding back at the edge of the field until the way was cleared for quick movement. At 09:15 3 minefields were discovered in the southern field bordering our middle. Our Schars moved to the right while still advancing along the trail, the center tanks moved up and over to investigate the field while a scout infantry unit found 2 entrenchments manned by 3 SMGs and a t-34b, a 76.2 and a KMS. This was too large a force to attack since it would be too costly in time and men to bother with so the Hmg, Schar and a PzlllJ remained in the field but outside the line of minefields to make sure the Soviet force could not maneuver behind the German main force still moving forward. The units on the left discovered a lone T-34b defending the hill shaped as a peanut. It retreated along with the Soviet Infantry and T-34c that was defending the town to the left of the trail as The German infantry began encasing the town. The Schars continued advancing along the trail encircling 3 Soviet tanks and an infantry unit on the eastern hill and once the hill was in German hands the tank rolled on top and quickly dominated the battle for the hill. The rest of the Soviet force was so badly misplaced that their only solution was to leave the field of battle.
