Teterevino North, South West of Prokhorovka: July 10th, 1943. (Scenario Size: Korp. Head to Head or Team Play, German Human vs Soviet AI) SS-Oberstgruppenführer Paul Hausser's II SS Panzer Korps had reached Teterevino North on the evening of July 6th. For the following three days it had advanced no further, seeing both its Panzer's redirected to the west to help the stalled XXXXVIII Panzer Korp as well as enduring very heavy Soviet counterattacks on its Eastern flank. The failure of either III or XXXXVIII Panzer Korp's to keep pace with the SS had resulted in giving the Soviets the respite needed to bring strategic reserves forward. July 10th dawned with low visibility and heavy rain. Totenkopf's Panzer Grenadiers had arrived in the Gresnoye area late the previous day and launched an immediate assault over the Psel only to be bloodily repulsed by the defending 52nd Guards Rifle Division. Totenkopf planned to try again with the rising of the sun while Liebstandarte prepared to begin clearing the defences on the road to Prokhorovka.
