The Competition & Teaser Thread

That area is also the area I thought it was, but although it fits in a number of ways, including a lake on the eastern river, there is no lake on the western river (and currently, there is), so it could be that it dried up in summer or became that patch of marshy terrain.

Also: if that is indeed 18th Tank Corps, it can't be a prelude as 5th Guards Tank Army attacked on the same day as the Germans (the 12th) and as far as I know not before that. As the actual battle for Prokhorovka would happen further north and parts of the frontline on this map would be held by the 167th infantry division and even the Soviet 69th Army (Das Reich's right flank was hanging in the breeze), this would have to be a post-Prokhorovka operation.

There's also issue of neither of the northern Tank Corps having their motorized infantry brigade with them and the northern SS division seemingly not having (m)any tanks aside from one or two tank units unless they're stacked with the rest of the defenders. The map is also probably cut for a reason, with parts of LSSAH not being present.
