"Korsun Pocket", 120kms SE Kiev, February 10th 1944: By the 10th of February it was obvious to the German High Command that it was now or never. A breakout attempt had to be made and soon. A radio message from General Breith in the pockets was short and to the point " ... we will come out, no matter what!" Meanwhile, on the other side, Marshall Konev anticipating the breakout attempt, began shifting units to meet the threats from all directions. [Size large]

This scenario is very difficult for the Germans using explicit supply.
The situation is intriguing with the pocket and the German rescue effort. Because of the mud, however, movement is most always 1 hex if off road so there is not much chance for maneuver. Even though it is set in 1944, The Russians do not have much hitting power.
