Into the Maelstrom of Stalingrad
Day five - 21 Oct, German Assault, Overcast, Moderate, Mild Breeze. Germ Reinforcements (ELR:4, SAN:2) Sturm 5th Coy, Heavy Weapon 1st Pltn. Germ OB: 14 Leaders, Guns 3x INF 75mm, 2x GrW 34, AFVs 3x SPW 251/1, 52 sq-eq (9 Crews, 37.5 Elite, 10 1st/2nd Line), 26 SWs (2 HMG, 8 MMG, 10 LMG, 1 Lt MTR, 5 DC). Russian Reinforcements (ELR:3, SAN:2) Militia 3rd Coy, SMG 4th & 5th Coy (both R), T-70 Dug-In Pltn, T-60 M42 Dug-In Pltn. Fortifications 40 FPP. Russian OB: 18 Leaders, Gun AT 45mm, AFVs 3x T-60 M42, 3x T-70, 86.5 Sq-eq (6 Crews, 7.5 Elite, 47.5 1st-Line, 28.5 Conscripts), 13 SWs (2 HMG, 3 MMG, 5 LMG, 2 ATR, 1 Lt MTR). AFTERMATH 21 Oct (6 Turns): On the fifth day of the fierce fighting in the Barrikady factory district, the Germans committed a formidable array of forces: 5 Sturm Coy (60× 548), 3 Rifle Coy (36× 467), 1 HW Pltn, 2 GrW 34, 6 Panzer III, 4 SPW, 4 INF Guns, 13 Stuka, OBA 3 Btln MTR 80+mm. The Soviets countered this onslaught with an even larger contingent: 3 Militia Coy (45× 426), 6 Rifle Coy (72× 447), 5 SMG Coy (45× 527), 1 Gds SMG Coy (9× 628), 1 HW Wpn pltn, 2× MTR 82mm, 6 AT 45mm, 6 T-70, 3 T-60, fortifications, OBA 2 Btln MTR 80+mm, 2 Lt Arty 70+mm. The German assault resumed amid heavy rain, with their main thrust aimed at penetrating deeper into the factory complexes while diverting a substantial force toward the Volga sector. However, the push into the factories proved a complete failure; no ground was gained, and the Soviets even recaptured portions of a factory hall through determined counterattacks. In the Volga sector, the Germans advanced despite heavy casualties, successfully seizing the theater and establishing a tenuous foothold in the Commissar's House. Along the railway embankment's building/rubble there is only some skirmish fighting. Next day 22 Oct will be an idle day, and both sides bring in reinforcements to fill up their losses and prepare for the on-coming onslaught on the 23rd Oct. The Soviets now realizes that the frontline has almost double in length as the German perimeter have been stretched all down to the south along the railway embankments. Germ Cas: 4 Leader, 21 Squad-eq, 4 SWs, 2 Guns, 2 AFVs. Russ Cas: 6 Leader, 29.5 Squad-eq, 4 SWs, 1 Gun, 1 AFV.

AFTERMATH 20 Oct (6 Turns): The German had brought four INF Guns during the night to the front line as support. Despite that, the German assault stalled almost immediately, and bloodied along the entire front line, the attackers also suffered more casualties from Russian counterattacks and plenty of booby traps. One Pz III was recalled and the other wrecked. Subsequent new German assaults were often repelled, and the front line advanced hardly at all or just a little forward during the day’s fighting. Germ Casualties: 1 Leader, 13 Squad-eq, 6 SWs, 1 Gun, 2 AFVs (one Recall). Russ Casualties: 2 Leader, 15 Squad-eq, 5 SWs, 2 Guns, 2 AFVs.

The following Tournament SSR has been removed FLAMETHROWERS: The Basic TK# for the AFV Flamethrower is 6 at one hex and 4 at two hexes and 3 at three hex range. The Basic TK# for an Infantry FT is 6 at one hex and 4 at two hex range. Modifications of the Basic TK# apply. Hur Eldkastare fungerar med nya regler när den attackerar AFVs. AFV Flamethrower (2 hex normal range ) har nu en TK# på 10 or less at range one or two hexes. 3 hexes a TK of 6 or less. Jämfört med tournament SSR, 8 or less at one hex and 6 or less at two hexes. At three hexes a TK# of 5 or less. Uppdateringen av MMP är sämre än Tournament SSR. Ändock bättre än hur regeln var förut, men valt fel väg framåt.

Day three - 19 Oct, German Assault, Clear, Moist, no wind Germ Reinforcements (ELR:4, SAN:2) Sturm 3rd Coy, Stuka (3), OBA: Btln MTR 80+mm with Offb'd Observer and Pre-Reg Hex A15. OBA: Btln MTR 80+mm 8-0 Ldr with Phone on roof M11.

AFTERMATH 19 Oct (6 Turns): For the third consecutive day, the Germans pressed their assault into the factory halls. Now reinforced by two btln morter batteries and Stuka dive-bombers screaming down onto the Soviet defenders, the attack gained fresh momentum. Despite being steadily forced back, the Red Army troops inside the factories refused to break; they clung tenaciously to their positions under crushing pressure from two German sturm coy that pushed forward with grim determination, but many German leaders were either wounded or killed at the factory floor. In the Volga riverbank sector, a fullstrength company of front-line German infantry achieved a surprising success: after a shoot-out and intense close-quarters fighting, they succeeded in clearing the Soviets from the strongly contested “Chemist’s Shop” building. Along the railway embankment, however, the front line remained deadlocked. Germ Casualties: 7 Leader, 14.5 Squad-eq, 4 SWs, 2 AFVs. Russ Casualties: 0 Leader, 27.5 Squad-eq, 7 SWs, 2 Guns, 1 AFV.

AFTERMATH 18 Oct (6 Turns): The German assault continued into its second day in the Barrikady district. Along the railway embankments, the advance was halted with no significant progress, as Russian battalion artillery relentlessly pounded the German Schwerpunkt assault groups. The only gain was control of the abandoned "triangle house," previously held by the Soviets. Within the factory complex, German forces pushed forward aggressively, inflicting heavy casualties on the defenders. In the Volga sector, they advanced and gained control of more terrain and established a perimeter just outside the Chemist's Shop building. The key to take for any further progress along the Volga sector. Germ Casualties: 4 Leader, 11.5 Squad-eq, 5 SWs, 1 AFVs. Russ Casualties: 1 Leader, 24 Squad-eq, 2 SWs, 2 Guns.

Into the Maelstrom of Stalingrad
Day one - 17 Oct, German Assault, Clear, Moderate, no wind. German at start OB (ELR:4, SAN:2) Rifle 1st Coy, Sturm 1st & 2nd Coy, Pz IIIL pltn, Pz IIIH pltn, SPW pltn, Stuka (3), OBA: Btln MTR 80+mm, two Pre-Registered Hexes (F11, N6) & Offb´d Observer (A9). Germ OB: 10 Leaders, AFVs 3x Pz IIIL, 3x Pz IIIH, 3x SPW 251/1, 1x SPW 251/10, 36 sq-eq (24x 5-4-8 Elite, 12x 4-6-7 First Line), 16 SWs (3 MMG, 6 LMG, 2 ATR, 1 Lt MTR, 4 DC). Russian at start OB (ELR:3, SAN:4) Rifle 1st & 2nd Coy, Rifle 3rd (R) Coy, SMG 1st Coy, SMG 2nd (R) Coy, OBA: Btln MTR 80+mm. 50 FPP & 5 Fort Loc. Russ OB: 10 Leaders, Guns 2x AT 45LL, 55 Sq-eq (2x 228 Crews, 36x 4-4-7 1st-Line, 18x 5-2-7 1st-Line), 15 SWs (3 MMG, 6 LMG, 3 ATR, 3 Lt MTR). AFTERMATH 17 Oct (6 Turns): The German planned attack into the Red Barrikady area was conducted with three companies of mostly elite troops, supported by six Panzers, four armored halftracks, artillery (80+mm Btln MTR), and Stukas. The Soviet defenders fielded five companies—three on the frontline and two holding a reserve line further back—bolstered by two anti-tank guns and artillery (80+mm Btln MTR). As the Germans advanced through the light terrain, the Russians opened fire. Early in the engagement, the German sniper (SAN: 2) struck with precision, eliminating two Russian snipers and reducing the Soviet SAN from 4 to 2. In Turn 2, the halftracks surged forward and unloaded 50 soldiers directly into the fray. A hidden Russian AT gun targeted an exposed Panzer III but jammed permanently, forcing its crew to abandon it. Near the Triangle House, the Germans uncovered minefields outside the building; in a desperate bid, a Russian squad received orders to close-combat a Pz III parked outside and succeeded in destroying it. Overall, the German assault progressed well, with several buildings captured or footholds gained within them and also captured one factory hall, much due to the German artillery that shattered the defenders as the Commissar was eliminated. Note, the Russian artillery only delivered two fire missions, allowing the Germans to re-group and resume the attack in the Volga sector. Germ Casualties: 1 Leader, 10 Squad-eq, 4 SWs, 2 AFVs (one Recalled). Russ Casualties: 4 Leaders, 24 Squad-eq, 8 SWs, 1 Gun.

AFTERMATH 19 Oct (7 Turns): The onslaught continues, with the battle turning into a prolonged affair (7 turns again). The Stukas arrive early yet again (on a DR of 1), and the 10-2 Stuka Ace returns to the scene agai, and target the Russian .50 cal machine gun nest, which is spraying a deadly volume of fire at the Germans next to the railway embankments. A direct hit from the Stuka's bombs eliminates the position and sets the building ablaze. German artillery pounds the Russian positions in the area as well, allowing the Germans to seize control of several more buildings along the embankments as they proceed farther south. In the factory complex, the battle rages on with substantial losses on both sides, but the Germans make no real advancement. In the Volga sector, the Germans maintain a couple of outposts guarding the area, but all of them are eliminated. As the Russians advance forward, however, the Stukas pinpoint their movement and rake the Soviet soldiers with machine gun fire and bombs. Germ Cas: 5 Leaders, 7.5 Squad-eq, 7 SWs, 3 AFVs.

Along the railway embankments, German forces advanced, encountering three hidden T-70 tanks. Once all three were neutralized, the Russians retreated, allowing the Germans to seize control of a nearby building and workshop hall.
