0714_02 The Night 'Shift' - PzC 01 Smolensk '41

Just south of Smolensk: "Total defence" was the order for the garrison of Smolensk - "hold every building or die!" But this order alone was no match for the cunning assault of the Thuringian 71st Infantry Regiment. Lead by Colonel Thomas, this elite formation swung into action - surveyed the situation and then struck hard at a weak place along the river east of the city, forcing their way into the city using more finesse than force. This is a smaller scenario that highlights this brilliant and lightning maneuver by the superior German troops as is especially enjoyable when played with an Axis Human vs. the AI, or two Human opponents.
