Fourteen reinforced Soviet rifle battalions have begun probing German positions 24 hours before the main battle will begin. German forces are lightly spread across a 19 km front. A Kampfgruppe from SS Wiking and a regiment from the 57th Infantry division are sent to stop the bleeding. |
The estab file for this scenario was created by Bletchley Geek and the map was too (though I am adding in features to the map and adding additional units to the estab file for the OOB). I am not sure who created this Soviet Union map graphics pack but it is tremendous for a winter battle like Korsun. It just looks cold!
This is still a long way off, but it is something I will make available when it is done. In between now and then, I just have a Panzer Battles scenario I need to finish.

Zoomed out view of the battlefield. Only battalion level units or higher are showing. |

The map graphics were done by Pavel Voylov.

Conceptually, "Prelude" will cover the fighting on the 24th (the day before the main attack by Konev).
The 2nd scenario I have planned is called "Locking the Door" and it covers the drive Jan. 25-27 to close the loop on the Germans. It will use the full Shpola-Burtki map which I am almost finished updating. I have a long way to go on that OOB though.
Your EF 1944 estab file is tremendous and I can't wait for folks to use the fully modeled forces instead of my slimmed down version of the Soviets.
When the Soviet artillery sounds in "Prelude" it is a continuous reign of fire.
no worries, mate.
I am looking forward to roll out some of this stuff as soon as Pavel manages to whack all the Steam moles and we get Steam Workshop support.
Cheers,
Miquel.
