In the end, the Germans are pushed back, almost to their starting positions. Despite this, the Soviets pay in blood, losing horrendous amounts of men. STAVKA headquarters promises to send more reinforcements, and that these losses are insignificant. In the afternoon, the Germans lose steam, allowing the day to come to a somewhat peaceful end.

AFTERMATH 17 Oct (7 Turns): As the battle for Stalingrad reaches its Apex, and assault into the Red Barricades district for the first time, Col. Sandblom is tasked with crushing the Soviet resistance in the area. Using armor and artillery support, the Germans pushed hard towards the factory area. Besides the regular Soviet army soldiers, they also encountered armed Militia. The Soviets, led by Comrade Falk, were ready for them, with their own artillery and AT-guns. Using their overwhelming firepower, the Germans pushed hard in the center, inflicting heavy casualties to the Russian infantry, who narrowly avoided a collapse as one of the German modules are forced to divert its attention to support the German troops at the Volga front, where the Soviets quickly stalled and trapped the Germans in a local counter-attack, that disintegrated by the German artillery blasts. The two StuG IIIB the Germans had relied on, for support in the Volga sector, failed, as one were knocked out by an AT-Gun from the Chemist Shop fortified upper level, while the other StuG IIIB jammed its gun firing its first shot and disabled it and was Recalled. A bloody day, especially for the Russians. Germ Casualties: 2 Leaders, 8.5 Squad-equivalents, 6 SWs, 2 AFVs (one Recalled). Russ Casualties: 1 Leader, 27 Squad-equivalents, 8 SWs. German OB, end of 17 Oct (SAN:3) 8 Leaders, AFVs 3 Pz IIIL, 1 StuG IIIB, 27.5 squad-equivalents (10 Elite, 17.5 1st/2nd Line), 10 SWs (1 HMG, 3 MMG, 4 LMG, 2 Lt MTR).
