Introduction |
---|
Desperate to close the breach in their lines, the German Sixth Anny flung all of its reserves into an effort to build a new defense along the Cogilnic River, designated the Stefan Line. At Abaclia the 153rd Training Division found that the Soviets were somehow already over the river, and immediately attacked in an effort to push them back to the other side. |
Conclusion |
---|
Seventh Mechanized Corps was not a particularly good unit, but it was good enough to crush the German assault on their bridgehead. The German attempt to build a new defense in the Stefan Line failed before it could even begin, and the Sixth Anny began streaming westwards in an attempt to avoid encirclement. They would not be escaping across the bridge at Abaclia. |
Additional Notes |
---|
Maps 3 and 4 may also be found in Panzer Grenadier: The East Front and in Eastern Front Deluxe. One of SdKfz-7's in the OOB would have been Luftwaffe, as it is mostly the mover for the 88mm antiaircraft gun. |
