Kursk: Burning Tigers, scenario #35: Forgotten Success VI: Rolling On

The Germans have three objectives in this scenario, to achieve different victory levels or not. The Germans have a nice mix of forces and are heavy with tank units including an fPzIII which I just realized has a 6-1 range, as normally flame units have a zero range for assaults only. The Soviets have a mix of Guard and Regular Army units which include some Grant tanks and SU-76s. With only 15 turns the Germans must press hard and fast but it is a one mapper and both sides have off-board artillery and variable air-support as well as some minefields.

The German lead with their armor, as they have a lot for this size of scenario and are follow closely behind by their Infantry and other units. The Russians take pot-shots along the route to the only town on the map which is well defended. The Soviets score a few hits on the German armor with Anti-Tank Fire and a few hits on the German Infantry with on board units and off-board artillery but the German numbers and strengths are telling and the Soviet lines crack. One big minefield hit with a three values slows the Germans for a turn but after that is was a complete victory by the end of turn fifteen with the Germans achieving all three of their victory objectives for a major victory.

With that said, I enjoyed this scenario and the size and unit mix made it a winner.
