Introduction

While further south their comrades finished the battle for Kishinev, Romanian 3rd Army crossed the Dnestr River into the Ukraine. There they faced the formidable Stalin Line pre-war defense system. Ordered to smash through, Romanian assault groups formed and began to arduous task.

Conclusion

The Soviets showed little initiative to counter-attack, but neither would they surrender their positions and they fought with tenacious courage. The Romanians had to take each position in savage hand-to-hand fighting before they could wheel to the north and resume their advance.

Additional Notes

This scenario is a revision of Eastern Front Deluxe, Scenario 45 "Stalin Line" and is playable with pieces & maps from Eastern Front Deluxe.

Romanian wagons are available at Avalanche Press, in the Daily Content archives. The article Moving the Armata Romana links to a pdf download, and contains suggestions for creating the counters.
