Gut gemacht!

Your KG is withdrawn to preserve combat power. In your sector, and along the entire Div.-Gruppe 137 zone the line is holding but further south the Soviets are gaining ground. And they are advancing rapidly.

News of trouble in Berlin reach the front but you are much too busy to pay any greater amount of attention to it. It looks as if you could be encircled as the Soviets are trying to seal off the entire BREST-LITOWSK.

During the last days of July BREST-LITOWSK is declared to be a Fortress. The troops are depressed as it is considered a veritable death sentence, but then the order is revoked. Instead a breakout to the west is ordered to start before the Soviet ring becomes solid.

You are to spearhead the effort...

I don't really plan ahead too much - your 'campaign story' is based on the actual history of Divisions-Gruppe 137/Korps-Abeilung E but with some liberties taken...

A foothold in PETSCHNEGI has now been established - clearing out the city is a task for infantry however...

Among your own troops you have also earned a new nickname - because your unit seems to draw many hard assignments you have unofficially started to become known as 'the Lucky One'.

The real Soviet assault on Petschenegi by elements of 160th Rifle Division got butchered on the ice. They never made it into the city, and they established no bridgehead...

...I'll post the next battle tomorrow, sorry for the delay - this time of year I tend to be busy on weekends..., haven't had time to finish it yet.

While the Soviet units proved no real opposition, they delayed my forces long enough to force a draw.

Post here the setup you'd like to play; nation, unit, front, year, general difficulty, size of battles etc parameters you find important.

I'll build a scenario based on that and then act as the "game leader"/command level adding missions to the campaign partly based on the outcome of the played scenario.

The idea is to produce a campaign caming experience that is more engaging and creative than a regular long/generated campaign and that in the end can be assembled and tweaked to a custom campaign for all to enjoy.

Can't do it on my own, need some brave souls to step forth...

I can volunteer?

Thanks! Now, however, the waiting is over...

Soviet infantry has been fed into the attack on PETSCHENEGI, while the armoured elements are relieved. Your unit is ordered south-east of the town, to link up units of the 6th Guards Cavalry Division.

You have but arrived when an alarm is raised. Scouts have detected an armoured group from the Adolf Hitler Division, your opponent from ARTEMOVKA and PETSCHENEGI, advancing along the road to IZYUM. Most German units in the Kharkov region are reeling back in retreat, but not the fresh SS Division opposing you - now however there is a chance to give the arrogant SS men a bloody nose...

...link up with the cavalry-men at the abandoned collective farm on the IZYUM road. Let none of the fashists through!

Hello Wulfir. Surprise me¡¡¡

I have no preference. I leave it delivered to your imagination. It could be anything but common. A country like Romania, Bulgaria, Greece and Yugoslavia. Poland may also be in the theater of Italy.
It has to be ww2? or may be mbt?
Thanks.

Thanks for the new one.

Locked and loaded into the campaign.
