The OB is splendid : 3 X Tigers, 2 X StuGs, offboard artillery, aircrafts and goliaths to reduce the Soviet entrenchments. The victory conditions are tricky : the Germans has to fulfill two of them to win. 1) exit 15 VPS 2) control the main road 3) control Burtyrki. Since the Russians are dug in, they receive hidden units and that's difficult to manage especially for the second victory condition. It's clear that well placed hidden unit might run/drive mad to take back control of at least one road hex in the last turns and there are only 14 turns to go... Russian minefields are on both sides trying to channelize me into the center. I chose the right side + center and went for the kill. The first entrenchment line was easily dealt with and no use for the goliaths that I discarded. The right flank seems to be open and Germans are at the gates of the city. Then chaos again : I have to endure a Logistic shortfall once again. It will be the very last time we will ever use this optional rule again ! It happens all the time and its occurence is far too high. I'll go for assaults only since my Direct fire is handicapped now (-1 col). And it went OK : more and more assaults gave me progressive control of the city while other German units (1 X Tiger, 1 X Stug, infantry) were exiting to achieve the first victory condition. Then my opponent went for Logistic shortfall himself and some time later for Critical Logistic shortfall. Good for me but this rule is to banish for sure. Then, one of my Tigers used extended assault (from two hexes away) against some Russians in the open and destroyed them all under the Tiger tracks ! My opponent picked the idea and, on turn 13, he also used extended assault with a hidden T-34 to get back in the city in just one move and took control of the road with another previously hidden T-34. Too late, Ruski ! All other weapons involving a Tiger using crossfire bonus with the shots of a 50mm AT gun eventually destroyed the sturdy T-34. German win. If you don't play this scenario with hidden units, you'll probably lose most of the fun and it will probably be an easy win for the Germans.
